Map Type: Deletion
Description: The deletion-based cytogenetic map of an organism is a type of low-
resolution physical map. It is constructed using a "genome deletion
panel" which consists of a series (or collection) of mutant lines
containing sub-chromosomal deletions and a reference wild-type line.
Markers can be mapped onto the genome using this panel (by Southern
hybridization or by PCR) based on the presence or absence of signal when
comparing the banding pattern in the mutants lines with the pattern in
the wild type. Linked markers (present in the same deleted region) share
the same banding pattern (presence or absence) on the deletion panel.
