Breakpoint analysis: precise localization of genetic markers by means of nonstatistical computation using relatively few genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Placing new markers on a previously existing genetic map by using conventional methods of multilocus linkage analysis requires that a large number of reference families be genotyped. This paper presents a methodology for placing new markers on existing genetic maps by genotyping only a few individuals in a selected subset of the reference panel. We show that by identifying meiotic breakpoint events within...
