Invariance Principle for the Coverage Rate of Genomic Physical Mappings

We study some stochastic models of physical mapping of genomic sequences. Our starting point is a global construction of the process of the clones and of the process of the anchors which are used to ...

Genetic and Physical Mapping of Melampsora Rust Resistance Genes in Populus and Characterization of Linkage Disequilibrium and Flanking Genomic Sequence

• In an attempt to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of Melampsora rust resistance in Populus trichocarpa, we have mapped two resistance loci, MXC3 and MER, and intensively characterized the flanking ...
