After evaluation of the consistency of the loci order between the two different maps, 75 common loci between the two mapping populations (55 AFLP and 20 framework) were used to determine the relative orientations of the linkage groups in their respective maps and to combine the maps into a consensus map (Fig. 1).
In principle, the overall aim of creating an integrated map is to combine together in a rational manner all available mapping information in the species of interest, without recourse to any information from other species.
The paper proposes a new constrained self-organizing map (SOM) to combine multiple semi-supervised clustering solutions for further enhancing the performance of ICop-Kmeans.
The method in [2] is a multiple feature segmentation with adaptive weighting that uses a Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) framework to combine motion and color to segment the first frame and uses the spatial probability density function (pdf) of the formed regions to track them through the remainder of the clip.
The basic idea is to use the FreeMind mind mapping software and to combine mind mapping and problem solving tools.
In a way, Google's custom maps allow users to combine sketch maps with cartographic maps.
The short reads were mapped to the combined assembled genome using Bowtie2 [ 13] with the default option.
To validate the usefulness of the consensus B-genome, mRNA-reads and de novo assembled transcripts from a series of genetically diverse interspecific triploid cultivars were mapped to the combined A- and B-genomes set.
In addition we carried out de novo assembly of these reads to generate transcript sets for each cultivar, and these expressed gene transcripts were also mapped to the combined genomes set together with a 'Grande Naine' (AAA), Unigene set.
The total sRNA reads were mapped to the combined genome using the SOAP program, yielding 10,389,135 (61.71%) and 12,630,855 (66.24%) genome matched reads in WA and BA libraries, respectively.
