  • Title: A microsatellite linkage map of the porcine genome.
    Author: Rohrer GA, Alexander LJ, Keele JW, Smith TP, Beattie CW.
    Journal: Genetics; 1994 Jan; 136(1):231-45. PubMed ID: 8138161.
    Abstract:
    We report the most extensive genetic linkage map for a livestock species produced to date. We have linked 376 microsatellite (MS) loci with seven restriction fragment length polymorphic loci in a backcross reference population. The 383 markers were placed into 24 linkage groups which span 1997 cM. Seven additional MS did not fall into a linkage group. Linkage groups are assigned to 13 autosomes and the X chromosome (haploid n = 19). This map provides the basis for genetic analysis of quantitative inheritance of phenotypic and physiologic traits in swine.
