Avian erythroblastosis virus has transduced two cellular genes, c-erb-A and c-erb-B. Using fractionated chicken chromosomes, we found that the two genes are located on different chromosomes in the chicken genome: c-erb-A is on a microchromosome, and c-erb-B is on a large chromosome. The locations of two other cellular oncogenes (c-fps and c-myb) were also determined: c-fps is on a microchromosome, and c-myb is on chromosome of an intermediate size. Our results suggest that avian erythroblastosis virus had transduced the two cellular genes independently, conforming to previous indications that cellular oncogenes are dispersed among multiple chromosomes in every species that has been examined.

Abstract Background: Gene expression variation is an important mechanism underlying phenotypic variation, and can occur via cis- and trans-regulation. In order to understand the role of cis- and trans-regulatory variation on population divergence of chicken, we developed reciprocal crosses of two chicken breeds, White Leghorn and Cornish Game, with major differences in body size and reproductive traits, and used them to identify the degree of cis versus trans variation in brain, liver and muscle of both male and female samples at 1 day age. Results: We provided a landscape about how the transcriptomes are regulated in the hybrid progenies of two contrasted breeds by allele specific expression analysis. Our results showed that compared with the cis-regulatory divergence, trans-acted genes existed more extensively in the chicken genome. Furthermore, a widespread tendency of compensatory regulation exists in chicken genome. Most importantly, we found the evidence of stronger purifying selection on genes regulated by trans variations than the cis elements. Conclusions: We demonstrated a pipeline to explore the allele-specific expression in the hybrid progenies of inbred lines without specific reference genome. Our research performed the first study to describe the regulatory divergence between two contrasted breeds. The results suggested that artificial selection associated with domestication in chicken may have more often acted on trans-regulatory divergence than cis.
