Abstract |
A mapping referential family (F-1) of ayu was produced by crossing a normal diploid male with a homozygous clonal female. A genetic linkage map was constructed using 191 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and 4 microsatellite DNA markers. A total of 178 loci were mapped in 36 linkage groups comprising 1659.6 cM, which includes approximately 77.3% to 81.8% of the total genome. As the markers were randomly distributed over the genome, they showed high efficiency for the construction of a wide linkage map. |
