Abstract
The nuclear-encoded species cytoplasm specific (scs) genes control nuclear-cytoplasmic compatibility in wheat (genus Triticum). Alloplasmic cells, which have nucleus and cytoplasm derived from different species, produce vigorous and vital organisms only when the correct version of scs is present in their nucleus. In this study, bulks of in vivo radiation hybrids segregating for the scs phenotype have been genotyped by sequencing with over 1.9 million markers. The high marker saturation obtained for a critical region of chromosome 1D allowed identification of 3318 reads that mapped in close proximity of the scs. A novel in silico approach was deployed to extend these short reads to sequences of up to 70 Kb in length and identify candidate open reading frames (ORFs). Markers were developed to anchor the short contigs containing ORFs to a radiation hybrid map of 650 individuals with resolution of 288 Kb. The region containing the scs locus was narrowed to a single Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) contig of Aegilops tauschii. Its sequencing and assembly by nano-mapping allowed rapid identification of a rhomboid gene as the only ORF existing within the refined scs locus. Resequencing of this gene from multiple germplasm sources identified a single nucleotide mutation, which gives rise to a functional amino acid change. Gene expression characterization revealed that an active copy of this rhomboid exists on all homoeologous chromosomes of wheat, and depending on the specific cytoplasm each copy is preferentially expressed. Therefore, a new methodology was applied to unique genetic stocks to rapidly identify a strong candidate gene for the control of nuclear-cytoplasmic compatibility in wheat.

Abstract
Radiation treatment of genomes is used to generate chromosome breaks for numerous applications. This protocol describes the preparation of seeds and the determination of the optimal level of irradiation dosage for the creation of a radiation hybrid (RH) population. These RH lines can be used to generate high-resolution physical maps for the assembly of sequenced genomes as well as the fine mapping of genes. This procedure can also be used for mutation breeding and forward/reverse genetics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The large and complex genome of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L., ~17 Gb) requires high resolution genome maps with saturated marker scaffolds to anchor and orient BAC contigs/ sequence scaffolds for whole genome assembly. Radiation hybrid (RH) mapping has proven to be an excellent tool for the development of such maps for it offers much higher and more uniform marker resolution across the length of the chromosome compared to genetic mapping and does not require marker polymorphism per se, as it is based on presence (retention) vs. absence (deletion) marker assay. METHODS In this study, a 178 line RH panel was genotyped with SSRs and DArT markers to develop the first high resolution RH maps of the entire D-genome of Ae. tauschii accession AL8/78. To confirm map order accuracy, the AL8/78-RH maps were compared with:1) a DArT consensus genetic map constructed using more than 100 bi-parental populations, 2) a RH map of the D-genome of reference hexaploid wheat 'Chinese Spring', and 3) two SNP-based genetic maps, one with anchored D-genome BAC contigs and another with anchored D-genome sequence scaffolds. Using marker sequences, the RH maps were also anchored with a BAC contig based physical map and draft sequence of the D-genome of Ae. tauschii. RESULTS A total of 609 markers were mapped to 503 unique positions on the seven D-genome chromosomes, with a total map length of 14,706.7 cR. The average distance between any two marker loci was 29.2 cR which corresponds to 2.1 cM or 9.8 Mb. The average mapping resolution across the D-genome was estimated to be 0.34 Mb (Mb/cR) or 0.07 cM (cM/cR). The RH maps showed almost perfect agreement with several published maps with regard to chromosome assignments of markers. The mean rank correlations between the position of markers on AL8/78 maps and the four published maps, ranged from 0.75 to 0.92, suggesting a good agreement in marker order. With 609 mapped markers, a total of 2481 deletions for the whole D-genome were detected with an average deletion size of 42.0 Mb. A total of 520 markers were anchored to 216 Ae. tauschii sequence scaffolds, 116 of which were not anchored earlier to the D-genome. CONCLUSION This study reports the development of first high resolution RH maps for the D-genome of Ae. tauschii accession AL8/78, which were then used for the anchoring of unassigned sequence scaffolds. This study demonstrates how RH mapping, which offered high and uniform resolution across the length of the chromosome, can facilitate the complete sequence assembly of the large and complex plant genomes.

Abstract
The process of mapping markers from radiation hybrid mapping (RHM) experiments is equivalent to the traveling salesman problem and, thereby, has combinatorial complexity. As an additional problem, experiments typically result in some unreliable markers that reduce the overall quality of the map. We propose a clustering approach for addressing both problems efficiently by eliminating unreliable markers without the need for mapping the complete set of markers. Traditional approaches for eliminating markers use resampling of the full data set, which has an even higher computational complexity than the original mapping problem. In contrast, the proposed approach uses a divide-and-conquer strategy to construct framework maps based on clusters that exclude unreliable markers. Clusters are ordered using parallel processing and are then combined to form the complete map. We present three algorithms that explore the trade-off between the number of markers included in the map and placement accuracy. Using an RHM data set of the human genome, we compare the framework maps from our proposed approaches with published physical maps and with the results of using the Carthagene tool. Overall, our approaches have a very low computational complexity and produce solid framework maps with good chromosome coverage and high agreement with the physical map marker order.

Abstract
A comprehensive physical map was generated for Ovis aries chromosome X (OARX) based on a cytogenomics approach. DNA probes were prepared from bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones from the CHORI-243 sheep library and were assigned to G-banded metaphase spreads via fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH). A total of 22 BACs gave a single hybridization signal to the X chromosome and were assigned out of 32 tested. The positioned BACs contained 16 genes and a microsatellite marker which represent new cytogenetically mapped loci in the sheep genome. The gene and microsatellite loci serve to anchor between the existing radiation hybrid (RH) and virtual sheep genome (VSG) maps to the cytogenetic OARX map, whilst the BACs themselves also serve as anchors between the VSG and the cytogenetic maps. An additional 17 links between the RH and cytogenetic maps are provided by BAC end sequence (BES) derived markers that have also been positioned on the RH map. Comparison of the map orders for the cytogenetic, RH, and virtual maps reveals that the orders for the cytogenetic and RH maps are most similar, with only one locus, represented by BAC CH243-330E18, mapping to relatively different positions. Several discrepancies, including an inverted segment are found when comparing both the cytogenetic and RH maps with the virtual map. These discrepancies highlight the value of using physical mapping methods to inform the process of future in silico map construction. A detailed comparative analysis of sheep, human, and cattle mapping data allowed the construction of a comparative map that confirms and expands the knowledge about evolutionary conservation and break points between the X chromosomes of the three mammalian species.

Abstract
Radiation hybrid (RH) mapping has become one of the most well-established techniques for economically and efficiently navigating genomes of interest. The success of the technique relies on random chromosome breakage of a target genome, which is then captured by recipient cells missing a preselected marker. Selection for hybrid cells that have DNA fragments bearing the marker of choice, plus a random set of DNA fragments from the initial irradiation, generates a set of cell lines that recapitulates the genome of the target organism several-fold. Markers or genes of interest are analyzed by PCR using DNA isolated from each cell line. Statistical tools are applied to determine both the linear order of markers on each chromosome, and the confidence of each placement. The resolution of the resulting map relies on many factors, most notably the degree of breakage from the initial radiation as well as the number of hybrid clones and mean retention value.A high-resolution RH map of a genome derived from low pass or survey sequencing (coverage from 1 to 2 times) can provide essentially the same comparative data on gene order that is derived from high-coverage (greater than x7) genome sequencing. When combined with fluorescence in situ hybridization, RH maps are complete and ordered blueprints for each chromosome. They give information about the relative order and spacing of genes and markers, and allow investigators to move between target and reference genomes, such as those of mouse or human, with ease although the approach is not limited to mammal genomes.

Abstract
The ChickRH6 radiation hybrid panel has been used to construct consensus chromosome radiation hybrid (RH) maps of the chicken genome. Markers genotyped were either from throughout the genome or targeted to specific chromosomes and a large proportion (one third) of data was the result of collaborative efforts. Altogether, 2,531 markers were genotyped, allowing the construction of RH reference maps for 20 chromosomes and linkage groups for four other chromosomes. Amongst the markers, 581 belong to the framework maps, while 1,721 are on the comprehensive maps. Around 800 markers still have to be assigned to linkage groups. Our attempt to assign the supercontigs from the chrun (virtual chromosome containing all the genome sequence that could not be attributed to a chromosome) as well as EST (Expressed Sequence Tag) contigs that do not have a BLAST hit in the genome assembly led to the construction of new maps for microchromosomes either absent or for which very little data is present in the genome assembly. RH data is presented through our ChickRH webserver (http://chickrh.toulouse.inra.fr/), which is a mapping tool as well as the official repository RH database for genotypes. It also displays the RH reference maps and comparison charts with the sequence thus highlighting the possible discrepancies. Future improvements of the RH maps include complete coverage of the sequence assigned to chromosomes, further mapping of the chrun and mapping of EST contigs absent from the assembly. This will help finish the mapping of the smallest gene-rich microchromosomes.

Abstract
The protein encoded by CC chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family. This receptor was identified as a gene induced by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and is thought to be a mediator of EBV effects on B lymphocytes. This receptor is expressed in various lymphoid tissues and activates B and T lymphocytes. It has been shown to control the migration of memory T cells to inflamed tissues, as well as stimulate dendritic cell maturation. To map the CCR7 gene in chicken chromosome, a 6 000 rads chicken-hamster radiation hybrid panel (ChickRH6) was used. PCR of samples from ChickRH6 revealed that the location of CCR7 gene is linked to the maker SEQ0347 (6 cR away) with LOD score of 16.6 and that the marker SEQ0347 is located on chromosome 27 at 27 cR of RH (radiation hydrid) map. We compared the corresponding human mRNA sequence with the predicted coding sequence of chicken CCR7 gene, and found that the assembled contig shared a high percentage of similarity with that of the human gene.

Abstract
UNLABELLED rh_tsp_map is a software package for computing radiation hybrid (RH) maps and for integrating physical and genetic maps. It solves the central mapping instances by reducing them to the traveling salesman problem (TSP) and using a modification of the CONCORDE package to solve the TSP instances. We present some of the features added between the initial rh_tsp_map version 1.0 and the current version 3.0, emphasizing the automation of many steps and addition of various checks designed to find problems with the input data. Iterations of improved input data followed by fast re-computation of the maps improves the quality of the final maps. AVAILABILITY rh_tsp_map source code and documentation including a tutorial is available at ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/agarwala/rhmapping/rh_tsp_map.tar.gz. CONCORDE modified for RH mapping is available in the directory http://www.isye.gatech.edu/~wcook/rh/.

Abstract
High-density whole-genome maps are essential for ordering genes or markers and aid in the assembly of genome sequence. To increase the density of markers on the bovine radiation hybrid map, and hence contribute to the assembly of the bovine genome sequence, an Illumina® BeadStation was used to simultaneously type large numbers of markers on the Roslin-Cambridge 3000 rad bovine–hamster whole-genome radiation hybrid panel (WGRH3000). In five multiplex reactions, 6738 sequence tagged site (STS) markers were successfully typed on the WGRH3000 panel DNA. These STSs harboured SNPs that were developed as a result of the bovine genome sequencing initiative. Typically, the most time consuming and expensive part of creating high-density radiation hybrid (RH) maps is genotyping the markers on the RH panel with conventional approaches. Using the method described in this article, we have developed a high-density whole-genome RH map with 4690 loci and a linkage map with 2701 loci, with direct comparison to the bovine whole-genome sequence assembly (Btau_2.0) in a fraction of the time it would have taken with conventional typing and genotyping methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several approaches can be used to determine the order of loci on chromosomes and hence develop maps of the genome. However, all mapping approaches are prone to errors either arising from technical deficiencies or lack of statistical support to distinguish between alternative orders of loci. The accuracy of the genome maps could be improved, in principle, if information from different sources was combined to produce integrated maps. The publicly available bovine genomic sequence assembly with 6x coverage (Btau_2.0) is based on whole genome shotgun sequence data and limited mapping data however, it is recognised that this assembly is a draft that contains errors. Correcting the sequence assembly requires extensive additional mapping information to improve the reliability of the ordering of sequence scaffolds on chromosomes. The radiation hybrid (RH) map described here has been contributed to the international sequencing project to aid this process. RESULTS An RH map for the 30 bovine chromosomes is presented. The map was built using the Roslin 3000-rad RH panel (BovGen RH map) and contains 3966 markers including 2473 new loci in addition to 262 amplified fragment-length polymorphisms (AFLP) and 1231 markers previously published with the first generation RH map. Sequences of the mapped loci were aligned with published bovine genome maps to identify inconsistencies. In addition to differences in the order of loci, several cases were observed where the chromosomal assignment of loci differed between maps. All the chromosome maps were aligned with the current 6x bovine assembly (Btau_2.0) and 2898 loci were unambiguously located in the bovine sequence. The order of loci on the RH map for BTA 5, 7, 16, 22, 25 and 29 differed substantially from the assembled bovine sequence. From the 2898 loci unambiguously identified in the bovine sequence assembly, 131 mapped to different chromosomes in the BovGen RH map. CONCLUSION Alignment of the BovGen RH map with other published RH and genetic maps showed higher consistency in marker order and chromosome assignment than with the current 6x sequence assembly. This suggests that the bovine sequence assembly could be significantly improved by incorporating additional independent mapping information.

Abstract
The IMpRH(7000-rad) radiation hybrid panel was used to map 2035 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) at a minimum LOD score of 4.0. A total of 134 linkage groups covers 57,192 cR or 78% of the predicted size of the porcine and 71% of the human genome, respectively. Approximately 81% (1649) of the porcine ESTs were annotated against the NCBI nonredundant database; 1422 mapped in silico to a location in build 35.1 of the human genome sequence (HGS) and 1185 to a gene and location in build 35.1 HGS. The map revealed 40 major breaks in synteny (1.00e (-25 )and lower) with the human genome, 37 of which fall within a single chromosome. At this improved level of resolution and coverage, porcine chromosomes (SSC) 2, 5, 6, 7, 12, and 14 remain "gene-rich" and homologous to human chromosomes (HSA) 17, 19, and 22, while SSC 1, 8, 11, and X have been confirmed to correspond to the "gene-deserts" on HSA 18, 4, 13, and X.

Abstract
The type I keratin, K10, is expressed in epidermal keratinocytes undergoing terminal differentiation to form the stratum corneum, a barrier essential for life. In order to facilitate the study of keratinization disorders in the dog, the sequence and mapping of KRT10 is reported. The coding region of KRT10 is 1707 bp and is comprised of eight exons. Although the length of KRT10 has been reported to be polymorphic in humans, this was not observed in the eight domestic dog breeds studied, although one wild canid displayed a size difference. The structure and sequence of this gene is highly conserved across mammalian species. Canine K10 had an 86% amino acid identity with the human gene. KRT10 was localized to the on-going canine radiation hybrid map to chromosome 9 in the type I keratin gene cluster.

Abstract
In an effort to increase the density of sequence-based markers for the horse genome we generated 9473 BAC end sequences (BESs) from the CHORI-241 BAC library with an average read length of 677 bp. BLASTN searches with the BESs revealed 4036 meaningful hits (E <or= 10(-5)) in the human genome that provide useful markers for the human-horse comparative map. The 4036 BLASTN hits allowed the anchoring of 3079 BAC clones to the human genome, on average one corresponding equine BAC clone per megabase of human DNA. We used the BLASTN anchored BESs for an in silico prediction of the gene content and chromosome assignment of comparatively mapped equine BAC clones. As a first verification of our in silico mapping strategy we placed 19 equine BESs with matches to HSA6 onto the RH map. All markers were assigned to the predicted localizations on ECA10, ECA20, and ECA31, respectively.

Abstract
RH (radiation hybrid) has proved to be an effective method in constructing human genome maps (including ESTs, STSs and microsatellites). In this study, based on the information of five human genes (FMR1, IDS, FATE, BGN, F8A) on the X chromosome, the linkage relationship of these five genes in pigs were analyzed by a panel of 96 radiation hybrid cell lines. The results showed that FMR1, IDS, FATE, BGN, F8A were in the same linkage group, when LOD was set at 4. When LOD was set at 5, FMR1 and IDS were in the one group, FATE and BGN in the other group, and F8A was in a group by itself.

Abstract
Among Teleosts, Perciformes are the largest order of fishes and include numerous species of commercial importance. Perciformes also comprise species of primary interest for evolutionary studies and analysis of the sex determination systems and sex chromosome plasticity. Unfortunately, genomics tools and resources for Perciformes remain to be developed. Here, we report the production of a seabream whole-genome radiation hybrid (RH) panel in which quality was ascertained by the construction of a 2-Mb-resolution RH map. The map encompasses 440 markers (288 microsatellites, 82 gene-based markers, and 70 STS) suitable for linkage analysis and comparative mapping studies. Achievement of a RH panel and a whole-genome RH map should contribute to establishing seabream as a fish model among the Perciformes and should be of importance in aquaculture for marker-assisted selection, improvement of growth performance, and disease management. Development of RH maps in a cost-effective manner for other fishes with the described methodology will offer a powerful approach in aquaculture and will provide extended capabilities for comparing vertebrate genome evolution.

Abstract
The genomes of nonhuman primates are powerful references for better understanding the recent evolution of the human genome. Here we compare the order of 802 genomic markers mapped in a rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) radiation hybrid panel with the human genome, allowing for nearly complete cross-reference to the human genome at an average resolution of 3.5 Mb. At least 23 large-scale chromosomal rearrangements, mostly inversions, are needed to explain the changes in marker order between human and macaque. Analysis of the breakpoints flanking inverted chromosomal segments and estimation of their duplication divergence dates provide additional evidence implicating segmental duplications as a major mechanism of chromosomal rearrangement in recent primate evolution.

Abstract
We have cloned the complete coding region of the porcine TNFSF10 gene. The porcine TNFSF10 cDNA has an ORF of 870 nucleotides and shares 85% identity with human TNFSF10, and 75% and 72% identity with rat and mouse Tnfsf10 coding sequences, respectively. The deduced porcine TNFSF10 protein consists of 289 amino acids with the calculated molecular mass of 33.5 kDa and a predicted pI of 8.15. The amino acid sequence similarities correspond to 86, 72 and 70% when compared with human, rat and mouse sequences, respectively. Northern blot analysis detected TNFSF10-specific transcripts (approximately 1.7 kb) in various organs of a 10-week-old pig, suggesting ubiquitous expression. Real-time RT-PCR studies of various organs from fetal (days 73 and 98) and postnatal stages (two weeks, eight months) demonstrated developmental and tissue-specific regulation of TNFSF10 mRNA abundance. The chromosomal location of the porcine TNFSF10 gene was determined by FISH of a specific BAC clone to metaphase chromosomes. This TNFSF10 BAC clone has been assigned to SSC13q34-->q36. Additionally, the localization of the TNFSF10 gene was verified by RH mapping on the porcine IMpRH panel.

Abstract
The presence of a monosomic gametocidal chromosome (GC) in a barley chromosome addition line of common wheat generates structural aberrations in the barley chromosome as well as in the wheat chromosomes of gametes lacking the GC. A collection of structurally aberrant barley chromosomes is analogous to a panel of radiation hybrid (RH) mapping and is valuable for high-throughput physical mapping. We developed 90 common wheat lines (GC lines) containing aberrant barley 7H chromosomes induced by a gametocidal chromosome, 2C. DNAs isolated from these GC lines provided a panel of 7H chromosomal fragments in a wheat genetic background, comparable with RH mapping panels in mammals. We used this 7H GC panel and the methodology for RH mapping to physically map PCR-based barley markers, SSRs and AFLPs, onto chromosome 7H, relying on polymorphism between the 7H chromosome and the wheat genome. We call this method GC mapping. This study describes a novel adaptation and combination of methods of inducing chromosomal rearrangements to produce physical maps of markers. The advantages of the presented method are similar to RH mapping in that non-polymorphic markers can be used and the mapping panels can be relatively easily obtained. In addition, mapping results are cumulative when using the same mapping set with new markers. The GC lines will be available from the National Bioresources Project-KOMUGI ( http://www.nbrp.jp/index.jsp ).

In contrast to mammals, no orthologue of matrilin-2 was found in zebrafish, either by RT (reverse-transcriptase) PCR using degenerated primers or by screening the databases (Ensembl and NCBI); however, two forms of matrilin-3, matrilin-3a and -3b, were present. The identity with the mammalian matrilins is from more than 70% for the VWA (von Willebrand factor A)-like domains to only 28% for the coiled-coil domains of matrilin-3a and -3b. In all zebrafish matrilins we found a greater variety of splice variants than in mammals, with splicing mainly affecting the number of EGF (epidermal growth factor)-like repeats. The exon-intron organization is nearly identical with that of mammals, and also the characteristic AT-AC intron interrupting the exons coding for the coiled-coil domain is conserved. In the matrilin-3b gene a unique exon codes for a proline- and serine/threonine-rich domain, possibly having mucin-like properties. The matrilin-1 and -3a genes were mapped to chromosome 19 and 20 respectively by the radiation hybrid method. The temporal and spatial expression of zebrafish matrilins is similar to that seen in the mouse. Zebrafish matrilin-4 is highly expressed as early as 24 hpf (h post fertilization), whereas the other matrilins show peak expression at 72 hpf. By immunostaining of whole mounts and sections, we found that matrilin-1 and -3a show predominantly skeletal staining, whereas matrilin-4 is more widespread, with the protein also being present in loose connective tissues and epithelia.

Abstract
The human chromosome (HSA)19q region has been shown to correspond to swine chromosome (SSC) 6q11-->q21 by bi-directional chromosomal painting and gene mapping. However, since the precise correspondence has not been determined, 26 genes localized in HSA19q13.3-->q13.4 were assigned to the SSC6 region mainly by radiation hybrid (RH) mapping, and additionally, by somatic cell hybrid panel (SCHP) mapping, and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Out of the 26 genes, 24 were assigned to a swine RH map with LOD scores greater than 6 (threshold of significance). The most likely order of the 24 genes along SSC6 was calculated by CarthaGene, revealing that the order is essentially the same as that in HSA19q13.3-->q13.4. For AURKC and RPS5 giving LOD scores not greater than 6, SCHP mapping and FISH were additionally performed; SCHP mapping assigned AURKC and RPS5 to SSC6q22-->q23 and SSC6q21, respectively, which is consistent with the observation of FISH. Consequently, all the genes (26 genes) examined in the present study were shown to localize in SSC6q12-->q23, and the order of the genes along the chromosomes was shown to be essentially the same in swine and human, though several intrachromosomal rearrangements were observed between the species.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish a porcine physical map along the chromosome SSC7q by construction of BAC contigs between microsatellites Sw1409 and S0102. The SLA class II contig, located on SSC7q, was lengthened. Four major BAC contigs and 10 short contigs span a region equivalent to 800 cR measured by IMpRH7000 mapping. The BAC contigs were initiated by PCR screening with primers derived from human orthologous segments, extended by chromosome walking, and controlled and oriented by RH mapping with the two available panels, IMpRH7000Rad and IMNpRH12000Rad. The location of 43 genes was revealed by sequenced segments, either from BAC ends or PCR products from BAC clones. The 220 BAC end sequences (BES) were also used to analyze the different marks of evolution. Comparative mapping analysis between pigs and humans demonstrated that the gene organization on HSA6p21 and on SSC7p11 and q11-q14 segments was conserved during evolution, with the exception of long fragments of HSA6p12 which shuffled and spliced the SLA extended class II region. Additional punctual variations (unique gene insertion/deletion) were observed, even within conserved segments, revealing the evolutionary complexity of this region. In addition, 18 new polymorphic microsatellites have been selected in order to cover the entire SSC7p11-q14 region.

Abstract
Background The ChickRH6 whole chicken genome radiation hybrid (RH) panel recently produced has already been used to build radiation hybrid maps for several chromosomes, generating comparative maps with the human and mouse genomes and suggesting improvements to the chicken draft sequence assembly. Here we present the construction of a RH map of chicken chromosome 2. Markers from the genetic map were used for alignment to the existing GGA2 (Gallus gallus chromosome 2) linkage group and EST were used to provide valuable comparative mapping information. Finally, all markers from the RH map were localised on the chicken draft sequence assembly to check for eventual discordances. Results Eighty eight microsatellite markers, 10 genes and 219 EST were selected from the genetic map or on the basis of available comparative mapping information. Out of these 317 markers, 270 gave reliable amplifications on the radiation hybrid panel and 198 were effectively assigned to GGA2. The final RH map is 2794 cR6000 long and is composed of 86 framework markers distributed in 5 groups. Conservation of synteny was found between GGA2 and eight human chromosomes, with segments of conserved gene order of varying lengths. Conclusion We obtained a radiation hybrid map of chicken chromosome 2. Comparison to the human genome indicated that most of the 8 groups of conserved synteny studied underwent internal rearrangements. The alignment of our RH map to the first draft of the chicken genome sequence assembly revealed a good agreement between both sets of data, indicative of a low error rate.

Abstract
High-resolution gene maps of individual equine chromosomes are essential to identify genes governing traits of economic importance in the horse. In pursuit of this goal we herein report the generation of a dense map of horse chromosome 22 (ECA22) comprising 83 markers, of which 52 represent specific genes and 31 are microsatellites. The map spans 831 cR over an estimated 64 Mb of physical length of the chromosome, thus providing markers at approximately 770 kb or 10 cR intervals. Overall, the resolution of the map is to date the densest in the horse and is the highest for any of the domesticated animal species for which annotated sequence data are not yet available. Comparative analysis showed that ECA22 shares remarkable conservation of gene order along the entire length of dog chromosome 24, something not yet found for an autosome in evolutionarily diverged species. Comparison with human, mouse, and rat homologues shows that ECA22 can be traced as two conserved linkage blocks, each related to individual arms of the human homologue-HSA20. Extending the comparison to the chicken genome showed that one of the ECA22 blocks that corresponds to HSA20q shares synteny conservation with chicken chromosome 20, suggesting the segment to be ancestral in mammals and birds.

Abstract
The mapping resolution of the physical map for chicken Chromosome 4 (GGA4) was improved by a combination of radiation hybrid (RH) mapping and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) mapping. The ChickRH6 hybrid panel was used to construct an RH map of GGA4. Eleven microsatellites known to be located on GGA4 were included as anchors to the genetic linkage map for this chromosome. Based on the known conserved synteny between GGA4 and human Chromosomes 4 and X, sequences were identified for the orthologous chicken genes from these human chromosomes by BLAST analysis. These sequences were subsequently used for the development of STS markers to be typed on the RH panel. Using a logarithm of the odds (LOD) threshold of 5.0, nine linkage groups could be constructed which were aligned with the genetic linkage map of this chromosome. The resulting RH map consisted of the 11 microsatellite markers and 50 genes. To further increase the number of genes on the map and to provide additional anchor points for the physical BAC map of this chromosome, BAC clones were identified for 22 microsatellites and 99 genes. The combined RH and BAC mapping approach resulted in the mapping of 61 genes on GGA4 increasing the resolution of the chicken-human comparative map for this chromosome. This enhanced comparative mapping resolution enabled the identification of multiple rearrangements between GGA4 and human Chromosomes 4q and Xp.

Abstract
In order to extend knowledge of the process of cornification across species and to be better able to recognize inborn errors in keratin synthesis in the dog, we describe the organization and chromosome mapping of canine KRT1 and KRT2E and compare these results to human and murine sequence data. The coding regions of KRT1 and KRT2E are 1,860 bp and 1,902 bp respectively, distributed over nine exons. Both genes are localized on the canine radiation hybrid map to chromosome 27 in the type II keratin gene cluster close to polymorphic markers. These genes are highly conserved across species and based on both genomic and amino acid sequences, canine KRT1 and KRT2E share greater homology with humans than with mice.

Abstract
Oat–maize radiation hybrids are oat (Avena sativa L.) plants carrying radiation-induced subchromosome fragments of a given maize (Zea mays L.) chromosome. Since first-generation radiation hybrids contain various maize chromosome rearrangements in a hemizygous condition, variation might be expected in the transmission of these rearrangements to subsequent generations. The transmission and integrity of maize chromosome 9 rearrangements were evaluated in progenies of 30 oat–maize radiation hybrids by using a series of DNA-based markers and by genomic in situ hybridization. Maize chromosome 9 rearrangements were reisolated by self-fertilization in 24 of the 30 radiation hybrid lineages. Normal and deleted versions of maize chromosome 9 were transmitted at similar frequencies of 9.1% and 7.6%, respectively, while intergenomic translocations were transmitted at a significantly higher frequency of 47.6%. Most lines (93%) that inherited a rearrangement had it in the hemizygous condition. Lines with a rearrangement in the homozygous state (7%) were only identified in lineages with intergenomic translocations. Homozygous lines are more desirable from the perspective of stock maintenance, since they may stably transmit a given rearrangement to a subsequent generation. However, their isolation is not strictly required, since hemizygous lines can also be used for genome mapping studies.Key words: Avena sativa, Zea mays, addition lines, chromosome rearrangements.

Abstract
We have investigated the use of AFLP technology as a tool for the high throughput enrichment of Radiation Hybrid (RH) maps. The 3000 rad TM112 bovine RH panel was assayed with 37 EcoRI/TaqI AFLP primer combinations. The number of selective nucleotides used during PCR was increased to seven, to reduce the complexity of the AFLP profile and minimise the overlap between hamster and bovine bands co-amplified from hybrid cell clones. Seven-hundred-forty-seven bovine AFLP bands were amplified that could be distinguished following electrophoresis. Repeatability was tested within and between laboratories on independent template preparations and an error rate of 1.3% found. Two-point linkage analysis clustered 428 AFLP fragments in 39 linkage groups of at least 4 markers. Multi-point maps were constructed for 5 sample linkage groups. The study demonstrated that the AFLP approach could be used to rapidly screen for the most informative clones during panel construction and to increase the number of markers on RH maps, which could be useful for joining linkage groups formed by other markers. The use of AFLP markers as anchor points between existing RH maps and other physical maps, such as BAC contigs, is also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bovine chromosome (BTA) 15 contains a quantitative trait loci (QTL) for meat tenderness, as well as several breaks in synteny with human chromosome (HSA) 11. Both linkage and radiation hybrid (RH) maps of BTA 15 are available, but the linkage map lacks gene-specific markers needed to identify genes underlying the QTL, and the gene-rich RH map lacks associations with marker genotypes needed to define the QTL. Integrating the maps will provide information to further explore the QTL as well as refine the comparative map between BTA 15 and HSA 11. A recently developed approach to integrating linkage and RH maps uses both linkage and RH data to resolve a consensus marker order, rather than aligning independently constructed maps. Automated map construction procedures employing this maximum-likelihood approach were developed to integrate BTA RH and linkage data, and establish comparative positions of BTA 15 markers with HSA 11 homologs. RESULTS The integrated BTA 15 map represents 145 markers; 42 shared by both data sets, 36 unique to the linkage data and 67 unique to RH data. Sequence alignment yielded comparative positions for 77 bovine markers with homologs on HSA 11. The map covers approximately 32% of HSA 11 sequence in five segments of conserved synteny, another 15% of HSA 11 is shared with BTA 29. Bovine and human order are consistent in portions of the syntenic segments, but some rearrangement is apparent. Comparative positions of gene markers near the meat tenderness QTL indicate the region includes separate segments of HSA 11. The two microsatellite markers flanking the QTL peak are between defined syntenic segments. CONCLUSIONS Combining data to construct an integrated map not only consolidates information from different sources onto a single map, but information contributed from each data set increases the accuracy of the map. Comparison of bovine maps with well annotated human sequence can provide useful information about genes near mapped bovine markers, but bovine gene order may be different than human. Procedures to connect genetic and physical mapping data, build integrated maps for livestock species, and connect those maps to more fully annotated sequence can be automated, facilitating the maintenance of up-to-date maps, and providing a valuable tool to further explore genetic variation in livestock.

Abstract
Background The resolution of radiation hybrid (RH) maps is intermediate between that of the genetic and BAC (Bacterial Artificial Chromosome) contig maps. Moreover, once framework RH maps of a genome have been constructed, a quick location of markers by simple PCR on the RH panel is possible. The chicken ChickRH6 panel recently produced was used here to construct a high resolution RH map of chicken GGA5. To confirm the validity of the map and to provide valuable comparative mapping information, both markers from the genetic map and a high number of ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tags) were used. Finally, this RH map was used for testing the accuracy of the chicken genome assembly for chromosome 5. Results A total of 169 markers (21 microsatellites and 148 ESTs) were typed on the ChickRH6 RH panel, of which 134 were assigned to GGA5. The final map is composed of 73 framework markers extending over a 1315.6 cR distance. The remaining 61 markers were placed alongside the framework markers within confidence intervals. Conclusion The high resolution framework map obtained in this study has markers covering the entire chicken chromosome 5 and reveals the existence of a high number of rearrangements when compared to the human genome. Only two discrepancies were observed in relation to the sequence assembly recently reported for this chromosome.

Abstract
A second-generation 5000 rad radiation hybrid (RH) map of the cattle genome was constructed primarily using cattle ESTs that were targeted to gaps in the existing cattle-human comparative map, as well as to sparsely populated map intervals. A total of 870 targeted markers were added, bringing the number of markers mapped on the RH(5000) panel to 1913. Of these, 1463 have significant BLASTN hits (E < e(-5)) against the human genome sequence. A cattle-human comparative map was created using human genome sequence coordinates of the paired orthologs. One-hundred and ninety-five conserved segments (defined by two or more genes) were identified between the cattle and human genomes, of which 31 are newly discovered and 34 were extended singletons on the first-generation map. The new map represents an improvement of 20% genome-wide comparative coverage compared with the first-generation map. Analysis of gene content within human genome regions where there are gaps in the comparative map revealed gaps with both significantly greater and significantly lower gene content. The new, more detailed cattle-human comparative map provides an improved resource for the analysis of mammalian chromosome evolution, the identification of candidate genes for economically important traits, and for proper alignment of sequence contigs on cattle chromosomes.

Abstract
Large chromosomal rearrangements, duplications, and inversions are relatively common in mammalian genomes. Here we report interesting features of DNA strands flanking a Multiple Sclerosis (MS) susceptibility locus on Chromosome 17q24. During the positional cloning process of this 3-Mb locus, several markers showed a radiation hybrid clone retention rate above the average (1.8-fold), suggestive for the existence of duplicated sequences in this region. FISH studies demonstrated multiple signals with three of the tested regional BACs, and 24 BACs out of 187 showed evidence for duplication in shotgun sequence comparisons of the 17q22-q24 region. Specifically, the MS haplotype region proved to be flanked by palindromic sequence stretches and by long segmental intrachromosomal duplications in which highly homologous DNA sequences (>96% identity) are present at both ends of the haplotype. Moreover, the 3-Mb DNA segment, flanked by the duplications, is inverted in the mouse genome when compared with the orientation in human and chimp. The segmental duplication architecture surrounding the MS locus raises the possibility that a nonallelic homologous recombination between duplications could affect the biological activity of the regional genes, perhaps even contributing to the genetic background of MS.

Abstract
Microsatellites, or tandem simple sequence repeats (SSRs), have become one of the most popular molecular markers in genome mapping because of their abundance across genomes and because of their high levels of polymorphism. However, information on which genes surround or flank them has remained very limited for most SSRs, especially in livestock species. In this study, an in silico comparative mapping approach was developed to link porcine SSRs to known genome regions by identifying their human orthologs. From a total of 1321 porcine microsatellites used in this study, 228 were found to have blocks in alignment with human genomic sequences. These 228 SSRs span about 1459 cM of the porcine genome, but with uneven distributions, ranging from 2 on SSC12 to 24 on SSC14. Linking these porcine SSRs to the known genome regions in the human genome also revealed 16 new putative synteny groups between these two species. Fifteen SSRs on SSC3 with identified human orthologs were typed on a pig-hamster radiation hybrid (RH) panel and used in a joint analysis with 80 known gene markers previously mapped on SSC3 using the same panel. The analysis revealed that they were all highly linked to either one or both adjacent markers. These results indicated that assigning the porcine SSRs to known genome regions by identifying their human orthologs is a reliable approach. The process will provide a foundation for positional cloning of causative genes for economically important traits.

Abstract
Genes located on human chromosome 12 (HSA12) are conserved on pig chromosomes 5 and 14 (SSC5 and SSC14), with HSA12q23.3-->q24.11 harboring the evolutionary breakpoint between these chromosomes. For this study, pig sequence-tagged sites (STS) were developed for nine HSA12 genes flanking this breakpoint. Radiation hybrid (RH) mapping using the IMpRH panel revealed that COL2A1, DUSP6, KITLG, PAH and STAB2 map to SSC5, while PXN, PLA2G1B, SART3 and TCF1 map to SSC14. Polymorphisms identified in COL2A1, DUSP6, PAH, PLA2G1B and TCF1 were used for genetic linkage mapping and confirmed the map locations for these genes. Our results indicate that the HSA12 evolutionary breakpoint occurs between STAB2 and SART3 in a region spanning less than five million basepairs. These results refine the comparative map of the HSA12 evolutionary breakpoint region and help to further elucidate the extensive gene order rearrangements between HSA12 and SSC5 and 14.
