Mapping of Wes locus on B. mori chromosome 6. (a) SSR markers and genetic analysis. Three SSR markers and the Wes locus are shown above the map. Distances in cM are shown below the map. (b) Genomic scaffolds on chromosome 6. Dark gray boxes represent the assembled scaffolds and the names of the scaffolds are shown below. (c) Scaffold map and gene model of the nscaf2853 scaffold on chromosome 6. The SSR marker S0609 and the Wes locus are shown above the map. The genetic distance between S0609 and Wes locus is 2.0 cM. The gray and brown boxes (part of the Hox cluster) represent the ∼1 Mb region scanning by using bioinformatics analysis and chromosome walking. Distances are shown below in Mb. pb, proboscipedia; Dfd, Deformed; Scr, Sex combs reduced; Antp, Antennapedia. (d) The marker P1 shows polymorphism between Dazao and Wes. The sizes of the DNA markers (up to down) are 5000, 3000, 2000, 1000, 750, 500 and 250 bp. (d) Mapping of the Wes locus using P1. Linkage analysis (left) and recombination analysis (right) by using P1. There is no recombination between P1 and the Wes locus.
