Genome Mapping
For a basic overview of what genetic maps are and how they are
produced, see The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) page
"GENOME
MAPPING: A GUIDE TO THE GENETIC HIGHWAY WE CALL THE HUMAN GENOME". The
NCBI is a division
of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) at the National Institutes of Health
(NIH).
Follow the links below to information about efforts to map the
genomes of these organisms and for articles about how the genetic maps produced
are used.
