To date, only a few genome-specific SNP markers are currently available for marker-assisted selection although the ability to resolve allelic variation in members of gene families has been demonstrated.
The accuracy of imputation benefits also if genotypic information is available for markers tightly linked to those being imputed [ 5, 8].
These results are analyzed in conjunction with other LOH data available for markers on 3p, 11p, 13q, 16p, 17p, and 17q in an effort to place chromosome 18p alterations on the breast cancer progression pathway.
However, specific PCR systems were not available for each marker gene thus preventing the assignment of part of these markers by somatic cell hybrid analysis.
Fortunately, numerous BPH resistance genes have been identified, and abundant linkage markers are available for molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS) in breeding programs.
Once markers are assigned to chromosomes, a series of deletion lines [ 39] is available for determining marker locations within the respective chromosomes.
Primers, basic marker performance measures and single point transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) results as determined using Unphased v3.08 [29] are available for each marker in Supplementary Table S2.
However, as multiple assays eventually become available for the marker, a bias in any one assay will complicate the diagnosis and long-term monitoring of patients [ 33].
Accompanied by further progress on the wheat genome project coordinated by the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (http://www.wheatgenome.org/), more information about genomic sequence data of each chromosome will become available for wheat marker development.
