    Abstract:
    We report the localization of 92 new gene-based markers assigned to rat chromosome 1 by linkage or radiation hybrid mapping. The markers were chosen to enrich gene mapping data in a region of the rat chromosome known to contain several of the principal quantitative trait loci in rodent models of human multifactorial disease. The composite map reported here provides map information on a total of 139 known genes, including 80 that have been localized in mouse and 109 that have been localized in human, and integrates the gene-based markers with anonymous microsatellites. The evolutionary breakpoints identifying 16 segments that are homologous regions in the human genome are defined. These data will facilitate genetic and comparative mapping studies and identification of novel candidate genes for the quantitative trait loci that have been localized to the region.
