A consensus microsatellite-based linkage map for the hermaphroditic bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) and its application in size-related QTL analysis.

Bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) is one of the most economically important aquaculture species in China. In this study, we constructed a consensus microsatellite-based genetic linkage map with a mapping panel containing two hybrid backcross-like families involving two subspecies of bay scallop, A....
