title: Predicting chromosomal locations of genetically mapped loci in maize using the Morgan2McClintock Translator.
abstract: The Morgan2McClintock Translator permits prediction of meiotic pachytene chromosome map positions from recombination-based linkage data using recombination nodule frequency distributions. Its outputs permit estimation of DNA content between mapped loci and help to create an integrated overview of the maize nuclear genome structure.
