Quantitative trait loci for developmental rate in brook charr (Salvelinus fontinalis) and comparative analysis with three other salmonid species
Three brook charr full sib families were genotyped for 133 microsatellite loci and two 'Clock' genes, resulting in the identification of 43 linkage groups, 35 of which contain two or more markers. While only twelve conserved homeologous linkage groups were identified between brook charr an...
