| Summary: | This thesis is devoted to the characterization and detailed understanding of the base compositional patterns and the distribution of genes in the chromosomes of the chicken genome. Vertebrate chromosomes are organized into isochores, very long DNA segments (»300 kb) that are compositionally fairly homogenous, and characterized by different GC levels. |
