Figure 1

High-resolution radiation hybrid and comparative maps of BoLA. To the far left and far right are representations of BTA23 generated using the current genome sequence assemblies (Btau_3.1 and Btau_4.0, respectively). The centromere is represented as a black oval and distances are given in kilobases (Kb). The radiation hybrid map of BoLA is in the center, with map units given as centirays (cR). Just to the left and right of the RH map are marker names given in the order ascertained via radiation hybrid analysis, with connecting lines illustrating their comparative locations on the BTA23 maps.
