A dense SNP-based linkage map for Atlantic salmon (<it>Salmo salar</it>) reveals extended chromosome homeologies and striking differences in sex-specific recombination patterns
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The Atlantic salmon genome is in the process of returning to a diploid state after undergoing a whole genome duplication (WGD) event between 25 and100 million years ago. Existing data on the proportion of paralogous sequence variants...
