Figure 1From: A comparison of SNPs and microsatellites as linkage mapping markers: lessons from the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata)Number of informative meioses. Comparison of the number of informative meioses of microsatellites and SNPs. Informative meioses are highly dependent on the variability of the marker. The microsatellite markers exhibit significantly more informative meioses than the SNPs (t-test, t = 10.71, p < 0.0001(two-tailed), d.f. = 19.44).Back to article page
