The map aims to enable genetic analysis of quantitative inheritance of phenotypic and physiological traits in swine. The authors constructed the map by linking 376 microsatellite loci and seven RFLP loci in a backcross reference population. The study produced the most extensive livestock genetic linkage map to date, placing 383 microsatellite markers into 24 linkage groups spanning 1997 cM across 13 autosomes and the X chromosome, with seven markers unassigned.
Abstract We report the most extensive genetic linkage map for a livestock species produced to date. We have linked 376 microsatellite (MS) loci with seven restriction fragment length polymorphic loci in a backcross reference population. The 383 markers were placed into 24 linkage groups which span 1997 cM. Seven additional MS did not fall into a linkage group. Linkage groups are assigned to 13 autosomes and the X chromosome (haploid n = 19). This map provides the basis for genetic analysis of quantitative inheritance of phenotypic and physiologic traits in swine.
