III. Lists of gene symbols

Gene symbols newly adopted and linkage relations newly confirmed are listed. These are supplementary to those listed in RGN 1, 2 and 3. Because of the delay of determination of a unified numbering system of chromosomes, the numbering of linkage groups proposed by Kinoshita (see Table 4) is used in the list.
