Abstract excerpt
Polyploidy has been recognized as an important step in the evolutionary diversification of flowering plants and may have a significant impact on plant breeding. Statistical analyses for linkage mapping in polyploid species can be difficult due to considerable complexities in polysomic inheritance. In this article, we develop a novel statistical method for linkage analysis of polymorphic markers in a full-sib...
