Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
A high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Illumina Infinium array, containing 52,157 markers, was developed for the allotetraploid Brassica napus, a valuable tool for genetic fine mapping and genome-wide association studies in B. napus and its progenitor genomes.
Abstract
Key message TheBrassica napusIllumina array provides genome-wide markers linked to the available genome sequence, a significant tool for genetic analyses of the allotetraploidB. napusand its progenitor diploid genomes.

Development and Evaluation of a Barley 50k iSelect SNP Array.

TL;DR: To test the utility of the 50k chip for genetic mapping, a segregating population derived from a Golden Promise × Morex cross was genotyped and mapped over 14,000 SNPs to genetic positions which showed a near exact correspondence to their known physical positions.
