A Genetic Linkage Map for Zebrafish: Comparative Analysis and Localization of Genes and Expressed Sequences

Map position references: (a) This paper; (b) Postlethwait et al. (1998); (c) Förnzler et al. (1998); (d) Fekany et al. (1999); (e)Fisher et al. (1997); (f) Feldman et al. (1998). Primers for loci with no accession number were described by Postlethwait et al. (1998), except for smad2, smad4, and smad5, which were derived from our unpublished data (H.I. Sirotkin; A. F. Schier; and W.S. Talbot). The WHN gene was not significantly linked to other markers in the data set, and its position is currently unknown (UNK). Human and mouse map positions were obtained from the OMIM (http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/OMIM/) and MGD (http://www.informatics.jax.org/maptools.html) databases, respectively.
