Flavors of GrainGenes Maps
Physical: loci mapped byphysical placement ona chromosome.
This is a deletion map from the U.S. wheat genome project.
Sequence Records from the NSF ESTs contain thesupporting data and linksto maps supported byother projects:
QTL map from a barleymalting quality study
Interactive Map Construction
1. Identify relevant maps from the literature, usually from Theoretical and Applied Genetics
find Reference Keyword=map* & Year=2002results in 186 objects
2. Contact authors to acquire raw data and a spreadsheet with loci and chromosome positions
3. Convert locus names to GrainGenes standardized
nomenclature
4. Check all loci to be sure a probe record exists
5. Create probe records for new loci involves going to references within the papercontact with authorscan be very time consuming!!!
6. Create other object records genes, germplasm, colleague, reference etc.
A map set takes ~ a week if all goes smoothly and authors cooperate.
The Genome Browser (GBrowse) is a new mapviewing tool.
Click on a Bin bar to see all loci mapped to that region
Click on a Probe ESTs link to access queryfeatures on wEST
The CMAP viewer will allow users to compare maps.
NCBI is importingGrainGenes records for the Entrez Map ViewTool.

In-Depth pages willprovide links to PubMedliterature searches, NCBI,GrainGenes, etc.
