Linkage map construction using limited parental genotypic information

Cuevas, Hugo E. | Vermerris, Wilfred
Genetic linkage maps based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) represent an essential tool for a variety of genomic analyses. Today, next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables rapid genotyping of different mapping populations based on thousands of SNPs and the construction of highly saturated linkage maps. Nevertheless, missing data in the genotyping of the parental lines creates a bottleneck that determines the number of SNPs that can be used for the linkage map. As a proof of concept, a highly saturated genetic linkage map was constructed using the imputed genotypic data of a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population and the limited genotypic information of its parental lines. Two ABH genotype files were created from a pseudo-parental genotypic data set that includes all the SNPs present in the RIL population. In the first ABH file pseudo-parental 1 was considered parental A, while in the second pseudo-parental 1 was considered parental B. These two duplicate ABH genotype files were merged by chromosome and subjected to linkage map analysis. Since the ABH data were duplicated, two mirrored linkage groups were generated per chromosome. The correct linkage map was identified and selected based on the partial genotypic data of the parental lines. This strategy was effective for constructing a highly saturated linkage map of 33,421 SNPs based on the genotyping of 205 RILs and a limited number of 100 SNPs present in the parental lines. This strategy enables the use of all the NGS SNP data obtained from a low-coverage sequencing experiment in the mapping population.
