Figure 2 Linkage map of the
Plutella xylostella
(n = 31) genome (adopted from Baxter et al., 2011B)
This was inferred from 2 878 RAD alleles collapsed into 285 discrete RAD markers. Each linkage group contains between 10 to 158
RAD alleles (labelled RADs) and the total map length is 1 292 cM. Each RAD marker is labelled with three numbers (i_ii_iii)
corresponding to (i) the RAD marker (1~285), (ii) the chromosome number (1~31) and (iii) the number of RAD alleles at that marker.
Linkage groups 1~28 are homologous to the
B. mori
(n=28) chromosome numbering system, and LG29, LG30 and LG31 represent
