Locusmap

Locusmap is a computer package designed for rapid linkage analysis and map construction of loci with a variety of inheritance modes. The current version offers linkage analysis between codominant loci, between dominant loci, between codominant loci and dominant loci, and between codominant and sex-influenced, sex-linked, and imprinted loci. Using genotypic data supplied by the user, Locusmap calculates two-point recombination frequencies and LOD scores and then identifies linkage groups and orders loci within each linkage group automatically. Locusmap checks for genotypic and pedigree errors, and fills in missing genotypes when possible.
