Journal ArticleDOI
A Simple Sequence Repeat-Based Linkage Map of Barley
Luke Ramsay,Malcolm Macaulay,S degli Ivanissevich,K MacLean,Linda Cardle,John Fuller,Keith J. Edwards,S Tuvesson,Michele Morgante,A. Massari,Elena Maestri,Nelson Marmiroli,T Sjakste,Martin W. Ganal,Wayne Powell,Robbie Waugh +15 more
TL;DR: The mapped SSRs provide a framework for rapidly assigning chromosomal designations and polarity in future mapping programs in barley and a convenient alternative to RFLP for aligning information derived from different populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct comparison of levels of genetic variation among barley accessions detected by RFLPs, AFLPs, SSRs and RAPDs
Joanne Russell,John Fuller,Malcolm Macaulay,B. G. Hatz,Ahmed Jahoor,Wayne Powell,Robbie Waugh +6 more
TL;DR: RFLPs, AFLPs, RAPDs and SSRs were used to determine the genetic relationships among 18 cultivated barley accessions and the results compared to pedigree relationships where these were available and the choice of appropriate technology for different aspects of germplasm evaluation is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational and Experimental Characterization of Physically Clustered Simple Sequence Repeats in Plants
TL;DR: In this article, the type and frequency of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) in plant genomes were investigated using the expanding quantity of DNA sequence data deposited in public databases, and an approach was proposed and demonstrated for the targeted isolation of single or multiple, physically clustered SSRs linked to any gene that has been mapped using low-copy DNA-based markers.
Journal ArticleDOI
INTERMEDIUM-C, a modifier of lateral spikelet fertility in barley, is an ortholog of the maize domestication gene TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1
Luke Ramsay,Jordi Comadran,Arnis Druka,David Marshall,William T. B. Thomas,Malcolm Macaulay,Katrin MacKenzie,Craig G. Simpson,John Fuller,Nicola Bonar,Patrick M. Hayes,Udda Lundqvist,Jerome D. Franckowiak,Timothy J. Close,Gary J. Muehlbauer,Robbie Waugh +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that INT-C is an ortholog of the maize domestication gene TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1 (TB1) and 17 coding mutations in barley TB1 correlated with lateral spikelet fertility phenotypes are identified and identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-wide association mapping to candidate polymorphism resolution in the unsequenced barley genome.
James Cockram,Jon White,Diana L. Zuluaga,David M. Smith,Jordi Comadran,Malcolm Macaulay,Zewei Luo,Michael J. Kearsey,Peter Werner,David Harrap,Chris Tapsell,Hui Liu,Pete E. Hedley,Nils Stein,Daniela Schulte,Burkhard Steuernagel,David Marshall,William T. B. Thomas,Luke Ramsay,Ian Mackay,David J. Balding,Robbie Waugh,Donal M. O'Sullivan +22 more
TL;DR: The methodology described here is transferable to species with limited genomic resources, providing a paradigm for reducing the threshold of map-based cloning in unsequenced crops.
