A partial map of the barley genome incorporating restriction fragment length polymorphism, polymerase chain reaction, isozyme, and morphological marker loci.
Nine low copy number genomic DNA clones, a ribosomal sequence, and seven cDNA clones were found to identify polymorphisms in cultivated barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). An F2 population consisting of 100 plants was produced from a cross between a high-yielding two-rowed feed barley cultivar and a genetic marker stock homozygous for nine recessive and one dominant morphological marker genes. Through the use of these 10 well-distributed marker genes, five previously mapped isozyme loci, and two storage-protein loci, the approximate recombinational location for each of 17 restriction fragment length polymorphism loci was estimated. One clone, pMSU21, identified variation that appeared to be the result of a small insertion-deletion event that differentiated two-rowed and six-rowed genotypes. This difference was characterized, and one allele was sequenced. Oligonucleotide primers that flanked the insertion-deletion event were synthesized, and DNA samples from the F2 population were subjected to polymerase chain reaction sequence amplification. The variation identified by this technique was determined to be allelic to the variation identified using pMSU21 in Southern blot analysis. Maps of previously undescribed informative clones are included.
