Abstract

Correction: Construction of a High-Density Microsatellite Genetic Linkage Map and Mapping of Sexual and Growth-Related Traits in Half-Smooth Tongue Sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis)

Highlights

  • Genetic linkage maps have become important tools in many areas of genetic research

  • The microsatellite locus derived from the sequence of the SOX9 genes in half-smooth tongue sole was linked to LG18

  • Linkage analysis and map construction using molecular markers is more complicated in full-sib families of out-breeding species than in progenies derived from homozygous parents

Summary

Introduction

Genetic linkage maps have become important tools in many areas of genetic research. To perform a linkage study, it is necessary to genotype and map large numbers of the available genetic markers on mapping families. Genetic linkage maps based on microsatellite markers have been generated for economically important marine species, such as salmon [1], tilapia [2], European sea bass [3], rainbow trout [4], sea bream [5], Barramundi [6], catfish [7], grass carp [8], Japanese flounder [9] and Asian sea bass [10]. QTL for growth, disease resistance and stress response have been mapped in only a few species, such as Asian sea bass [10], rainbow trout [13], tilapia [14], salmon [15], Japanese flounder [16], guppy [17] and European seabass [18]
