The corresponding nomenclature followed earlier for the B genome of (with a prefix J) [11] and (with a prefix G) [18] is given in parentheses. This new nomenclature for the B genome linkage groups has been designated based on the comparative homoeology discerned between the A, B and C genomes in this study. Each genetic locus bears the name of the At () gene and the colour code of the At chromosome from which it is derived. At loci in italics represent the RFLP probes mapped earlier [11]. Loci marked with an asterisk (*) are derived from multicopy At genes [28]. Loci in black represent markers of the framework map [11]. The organization of the LGs based on the genomic blocks identified by Schranz et al. [15] has been represented on the left of each linkage group. The genomic blocks have been coloured differently based on the five At chromosomes from which they originate. Single copy At loci from different blocks mapped as unique insertions are shown in lower case on the right of each genomic block.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Comparative mapping of and using Intron Polymorphism (IP) markers: homoeologous relationships, diversification and evolution of the A, B and C Brassica genomes"</p><p>http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/9/113</p><p>BMC Genomics 2008;9():113-113.</p><p>Published online 3 Mar 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2277410.</p><p></p
