Ml. Wang et al., CONSTRUCTION OF AN SIMILAR-TO-2 MB CONTIG IN THE REGION AROUND 80 CM OF ARABIDOPSIS-THALIANA CHROMOSOME-2, Plant journal, 12(3), 1997, pp. 711-730
A method for construction of bacterial artificial chromosome (BAG) con
tigs from a yeast artifical chromosome (YAC) physical map is described
. An similar to 2 Mb contig, consisting of two large BAC contigs linke
d by a small YAC, has been assembled in the region around 80 cM of Ara
bidopsis thaliana chromosome 2. Clones from this contig will facilitat
e gene isolation in the region and can be used directly as substrates
for DNA sequencing.
