NEWS FLASH:

Dr. Keith E. Murphy at Texas A & M University reported to the GDCACT this week that since last reporting he has identified a marker on Chromosome 9, suggestive that one of the genes ASPA5 is a striking candidate for the Harlequin gene.

Dr. Murphy will be providing a "Lay Summary" which we will publish on the GDCA Web Site upon receipt. Additionally, we will include it in the next published Bulletin. Dr. Murphy's Manuscript has been accepted for publication in the Journal "Gene" under the title:

"Genome-wide linkage scan localizes the harlequin locus in the Great Dane to Chromosome 9". Leigh Anne Clark, Alison N. Starr, Kate L. Tsai, Keith E. Murphy
