Physical mapping of bread wheat chromosome 5A: an integrated approach

ABSTRACT: The huge size, the redundancy and the great repeated portion of the bread wheat genome [Triticum aestivum (L.)], placed it among the most difficult species to be sequenced and dissected at the genetic, structural and evolutionary levels. To overcome the limitations, a strategy based on the genome compartmentalization in individual chromosomes and the subsequent production of physical maps was established within the frame of the International Wheat Genome Sequence Consortium. A total of 95,812 BAC clones of short (5AS) and long (5AL) arm-specific BAC libraries, were fingerprinted and assembled into contigs by complementary analytical approaches based on FingerPrinted Contigs and Linear Topological Contig. Combined anchoring approaches based on PCR marker screening, microarray and BlastN sea
