The LGs ranged in size from 95 to 167 cM and marker number varied from 300 to 700.
As he worked, each name etched on the 10-foot-tall slab of gray Vermont granite was followed by the marker number, year of death and age of its owner.
The consensus map created in MergeMap was of higher quality than the consensus map created in JoinMap® v4.1 (data not shown) with regard to marker number and marker density.
Aside from the physical coverage of the maps usually being lower in the intraspecific maps, these results suggest either that ascertainment bias was not an important factor in the almond/peach materials or that it was compensated for by a higher level of polymorphism compared to peach materials alone, giving a similar or higher marker number and coverage.
The total map length of the ICD map was longer and marker number was significantly higher than in previous studies11,21,24; we extended the genome coverage (LG length) for LG2 to LG7, whereas the length of LG1 remained the same24.
Nine subsets are selected with the marker number varying from 100 to 1,000,000.
Numbers (3 6) represent independent transgenic lines, M: size marker, number 1 2: non-transgenic plants, N: negative control (water).
Therefore, increasing the size of training population rather than increasing the marker number can be preferable for rice hybrid prediction.
We also assessed the influence of the statistical method, heritability, marker number and training population size on prediction for predicting hybrid performance.
In this study, we evaluated the influences of the statistical method, heritability, marker number and training population size on prediction for hybrid performance in rice.
In order to identify the impacts of training population size and marker number on predictability, we used different subsets of training population and markers to evaluate the predictability.
