Abstract: | We have constructed a primary genetic linkage map from DNA markers that define 25 loci on chromosome 7. The markers form a continuous linkage group of 141 cM in males and 340 cM in females; female genetic distances were on average more than twofold higher than those in males throughout the chromosome. The average heterozygosity of the loci was 45%. A subset of the markers can be used for efficient application of this map to studies of human genetic disease. |
