mapBC {ASMap}

A constructed linkage map for a backcross barley population

Description

A constructed linkage map for a backcross barley population in the form of a constructed qtl object.

Usage

data(mapBC)

Format

This data relates to a fully constructed linkage map of 3019 markers genotyped on 300 individuals spanning the 7 linkage groups of the barley genome. The map was constructed using the MSTmap algorithm integrated in mstmap.cross with geentic distances estimated using the "kosambi" mapping function. The data is in qtl format with a class structure c("bc","cross"). See read.cross() documentation for more details on the format of this object.
