Linkage Group VII
Contigs and supercontigs have been ordered and oriented using an optical map and anchored to the genetic map by locating the position of genetic markers within the current assembly.

The genetic map consists of approximately 1000 genetic markers placed within seven linkage groups. The markers with associated sequence have been located in our current assembly using BLASTN.

The original genetic maps show the ordered position of some of the markers within linkage groups. Only a subset of the well-ordered markers have associated sequence, and thus only these few markers can be used to order and orient our supercontigs against the genetic map. Additional supercontigs can be associated with linkage groups, but cannot yet be ordered and oriented.

You can view the optical and genetic linkage group maps graphically using the links above, or you can download the complete set of all markers in the XML file neurospora_crassa_7_assembly_map.xml, which includes genetic map position, GI numbers for those markers with sequence, and contig positions for those markers located in our assembly (see Download for data details).

A poster sized version of all of the physical & genetic maps is also available.

See Genetic Map Description for more details.
