I need the distance between genes on each chromosomes of wheat genome. I want to download these maps of genes to use it in software for QTL associations. I prefer the file format as excel. Thanks,
the only map i have till now is this (http://wheat.pw.usda.gov/ggpages/maps/Triticum/Wheat%20gene%20map).
is there any updates?!!!
Look likes that the data from your mentioned website above is from a linkage map. Some known genes were assigned to the linkage map and comes out the distance (cM) between them.
Probably you can type in "wheat linkage map/group" online to search. You might find out some relative locations of some genes on the map. It depends on how many wheat genes have been identified and integrated into these maps. Majority loci shown on those maps will be some sort of 'markers'.
Thanks Yuan-Yeu, Yes I knew and i believe you are right, however, i need something more like these to ease the way on myself during analysis. Otherwise, i have to rebuild/combine all these maps and/or markers in one single map, which is going to be a tedious path, and even i can publish it in a separate publication as a review. if i did not get a sure answer soon, i will take this long way and build it up by myself. Thanks again,
there are several maps available, however all maps are based on rate of recombination in specific population, thus don't represent the actual distance between genes. For example in map you mentioned, the position of Vrn-A1 gene shouldn't be there in consensus map. You can find several meta-QTL studies papers in wheat to get an idea of much more correct position of genes. Alternatively, you can find several maps on cmap viewer: https://ccg.murdoch.edu.au/cmap/ccg-live/cgi-bin/cmap/viewer
Thanks
