Figure 3

Affinities of the 12/13 ancestral proto-Actinopterygian linkage groups [A – M] based upon the Kasahara et al. model [20] within the Atlantic salmon genome. Composite female map lengths are given in centiMorgans (cM) according to the scale shown in the bottom left-hand corner of the figure. In some instances female linkage groups are depicted as multiple separate LOD = 4.0 clusters. For certain linkage group arms, it is currently not possible to distinguish D and/or E ancestral affinities, or J and/or K ancestral affinities. These arm segments are indicated as D/E, and J/K regions on the figure and are indicated via diagonal cross-hatching. Short p arms are oriented towards the top of the figure according to [21].
