摘要
Although most high-density linkage maps have been constructed from codominant markets such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and microsatellites due to their high linkage information, dominant markers can be expected to be even more significant as proteomic technique becomes widely applicable to generate protein polymorphism data from large samples. However, for dominant markers, two possible linkage phases between a pair of markers complicate the estimation of recombination fractions between markers and consequent]), the construction of linkage maps. The low linkage information of the repulsion phase and high linkage information Of Coupling phase have led geneticists to construct two separate but related linkage maps. To circumvent this problem, we proposed a new method for estimating the recombination fraction between markers, which greatly improves the accuracy of estimation through distinction between the coupling phase and the repulsion phase of the linked loci. The results obtained from both real and simulated F dominant marker data indicate that the recombination fractions estimated by the new method contain a large amount of linkage information for constructing a complete linkage map. In addition, the new method is also applicable to data with mixed types of markets (dominant and codominant) with unknown linkage phase.
