T1 A High-Resolution Microsatellite Map of the Mouse Genome JF Genome Research JO Genome Research YR 1998 FD May 01 VO 8 IS 5 SP 531 OP 542 DO 10.1101/gr.8.5.531 UL http://genome.cshlp.org/content/8/5/531.abstract AB The European Collaborative Interspecific Backcross (EUCIB) resource was constructed for the purposes of high-resolution genetic mapping of the mouse genome (Breen et al. 1994). The large Mus spretus/C57BL/6 backcross of 982 progeny has a genetic resolution of 0.3 cM at the 95% confidence level (∼500 kb in the mouse genome). We have used the EUCIB mapping resource to develop a genome-wide high-resolution genetic map incorporating 3368 microsatellites. The microsatellites are distributed among 2302 genetically separated bins with 1.46 markers per bin on average. Average bin separation is 0.61 cM. This high-resolution genetic map will aid the construction of a robust physical map of the mouse genome.
