Gramene Maps Database

Welcome to Gramene's Maps module where you can view genetic, physical, sequence, and QTL maps for many species of cereal crops. CMap — the Comparative Map Viewer — allows you to construct comparisons between different maps. All data (map sets, maps, features, and correspondences) in the Maps Module are built from the Markers Module. Users are encouraged to consult the Markers Module for primary information about markers and their mappings. The Maps Module should be considered to be primarily a visualization tool
