High-Density Genetic Linkage Map of the Southern Blue-ringed Octopus (Octopodidae: <i>Hapalochlaena maculosa</i>)
Genetic linkage maps provide a useful resource for non-model genomes and can aid in genome reassembly to form more contiguous pseudo-chromosomes. We present the first linkage map of any cephalopod, <i>H. maculosa</i>, composed of 47 linkage groups (LG). A total of 2166 single nucleotide...

description | Genetic linkage maps provide a useful resource for non-model genomes and can aid in genome reassembly to form more contiguous pseudo-chromosomes. We present the first linkage map of any cephalopod, <i>H. maculosa</i>, composed of 47 linkage groups (LG). A total of 2166 single nucleotide polymorphisms and 2455 presence–absence variant loci were utilised by Lep-Map3 in linkage map construction. The map length spans 2016.62 cM with an average marker distance of 0.85 cM. Integration of the recent <i>H. maculosa</i> genome allowed 1151 scaffolds comprising 34% of the total genomic sequence to be orientated and/or placed using 1278 markers across all 47 LG. The linkage map generated provides a new perspective on HOX gene distribution in octopods. In the <i>H. maculosa</i> linkage map three (SCR, LOX4 and POST1) of six identified HOX genes (HOX1/LAB, SCR, LOX2, LOX4, LOX5, POST1) were located within the same LG (LG 9). The generation of a linkage map for <i>H. maculosa</i> has provided a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of cephalopod genomes and will provide a base for future work. |
