The Project
Gene-based physical BAC map integrated with genetic maps
We present comprehensive genomic information in genetic and physical maps covering all nine sugar beet chromosomes. To construct the genome-wide physical map we hybridized gene-derived oligomer probes against two bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries with 9.5 fold cumulative coverage of the 758 Mbp genome. More than 2500 probes and clones were integrated both in genetic maps and the physical data. The final physical map encompasses 535 chromosomally anchored contigs containing 8361 probes and 22,815 BAC clones.
