Abstract
A map of the barley genome consisting of 295 loci was constructed. The se loci include 152 cDNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFL P), 114 genomic DNA RFLP, 14 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), five isozyme, two morphological, one disease resistance and seven spec ific amplicon polymorphism (SAP) markers. The RFLP-identified loci inc lude 63 that were detected using cloned known function genes as probes . The map covers 1,250 centiMorgans (cM) with a 4.2 cM average distanc e between markers. The genetic lengths of the chromosomes range from 1 24 to 223 cM and are in approximate agreement with their physical leng ths. The centromeres were localized to within a few markers on all of the barley chromosomes except chromosome 5. Telomeric regions were map ped for the short (plus) arms of chromosomes 1, 2 and 3 and the long ( minus) arm of chromosomes 7.
