Comparative radiation hybrid (RH) maps of individual ovine chromosomes are essential to identify genes governing traits of economic importance in sheep, a livestock species for which whole genome sequence data are not yet available. The USUoRH5000 radiation hybrid panel was used to generate a RH map of sheep chromosome 10 (OAR10) with 59 markers that span 1,422 cR over an estimated 92 Mb of the chromosome, thus providing markers every 2 Mb (equivalent to every 24 cR). The markers were derived from 46 BAC end sequences (BESs), a single EST, and 12 microsatellites. Comparative analysis showed that OAR10 shares remarkable conservation of gene order along the entire length of cattle chromosome 12 and that OAR10 contains four major homologous synteny blocks, each related to segments of the homologous human chromosome 13. Extending the comparison to the horse, dog, mouse, and chicken genome showed that these blocks share conserved synteny across species.
