Progress report
Microsatellite markers
were initially used to verify the parentage of the AIMS reference
families. These and additional microsatellite markers are also
being mapped across the complete family.

Amplified Fragment Length
Polymorphisms (AFLPs) form the backbone of the map. Although
generally not transferable between pedigrees, they provide a high
density of markers which enables linkage to be obtained to the small
number of transferable Type 1 markers.

Other Type 1 transferable
markers being added to the map include Single Stranded Conformation
Polymorphisms (SSCPs), Exon-Primed Intron-Crossing (EPIC) markers
and Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs).
