The BXD genotype file is being upgraded in 2010-2011 using the new high density Affymetrix array developed in the laboratories of Drs. Fernando Pardo-Manuel de Villena (University of North Carolina) and Gary Churchill (The Jackson Laboratory). This cutting-edge research tool, produced by Affymetrix, provides more than 100 times the SNP coverage  than any other available mouse genotyping platform, permitting high resolution mapping and genomic analysis. (580,000 high quality SNPs of 623,124 SNPs and 916,269 invariant probes.

The BXD genotype file used from June 2005 through 2011 exploits a set of 3796 markers typed across 88 extant and extinct BXD strains (BXD1 through BXD100). The mean interval between informative markers is about 0.7 Mb. This genotype file includes all markers, both SNPs and microsatellites, with unique strain distribution patterns (SDPs), as well as pairs of markers for those SDPs represented by two or more markers. In those situations where three or more markers had the same SDP, we retained only the most proximal and distal marker in the genotype file. This particular file has also been smoothed to eliminate genotypes that are likely to be erroneous. We have also conservatively imputed a small number of missing genotypes (usually over very short intervals). Smoothing genotypes is this way reduces the total number of SDPs and also lowers the rate of false discovery. However, this procedure also may eliminate some genuine SDPs.

<P><B>The smoothed BXD genotype data file can be downloaded from

<BR><A HREF="http://www.genenetwork.org/genotypes/BXD.geno" target="_blank" class="fs14">GeneNetwork at the URL http://www.genenetwork.org/genotypes/BXD.geno</A>.</B>

<P>Please Note: For a limited number of markers and strains, the genotypes of BXDs have been called heterozygous. This is usually done over comparatively short intervals in some of the newer strains that may not have been fully inbred when they were initially genotyped.  Use of the genotype file above in external software packages such as R/QTL, requires careful treatment of this issue to prevent bias in empirical significance thresholds. It is recommended to treat these rare heterozygous loci as missing data and ensure that only the additive effects of B vs. D alleles are estimated by these packages. (note from Elissa Chesler, Dec 2010).

<P class="subtitle">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Source of Genotypes:</P>

<Blockquote>
<P>In collaboration with members of the CTC (Richard Mott, Jonathan Flint, and colleagues), we have helped genotype a total of 480 strains using a panel of <A HREF="http://www.well.ox.ac.uk/mouse/INBREDS/" target="_blank" class="fs14">13,377</A> SNPs. These SNPs have been combined with our previious microsatellite genotypes to produce new consensus maps for the new expanded set of BXD using the latest mouse genome assembly as a reference frame for marker order (Mouse Build 36 - UCSC mm8). The order of markers given in the BXD genotype file is essentially the same as that given in Build 36. (Files were updated from mm6 to mm8 in January 2007.).

<P>A total of 88 strains were genotyped using the full set of SNPs, and 7482 of these were informative. <I>Informative</I> in this sense simply means that the C57BL/6J and DBA/2J parental strains have different alleles. To reduce false positive errors when mapping using this ultra dense map, we have eliminated most single genotypes that generate double-recombinant haplotypes that are most commonly produced by typing errors ("smoothed" genotypes). For this reason, the genotypes used in the GeneNetwork differ from those downloaded directly from Richard Mott's <A HREF="http://www.well.ox.ac.uk/mouse/INBREDS/" target="_blank" class="fs14">web site</A> at the Wellcome Trust, Oxford.

<P>
We have genotyped all available BXD strains from The Jackson Laboratory. BXD1 through BXD32 were produced by Benjamin Taylor starting in the late 1970s. BXD33 through BXD42 were produced by Taylor in the 1990s (Taylor et al., 1999). All BXD strains with numbers higher than BXD42 (BXD43 through BXD100) were generated by Lu Lu and Robert Williams at UTHSC, and by Jeremy Peirce and Lee Silver at Princeton University. We thank Guomin Zhou for generating the advanced intercross stock used to produce most of these advanced RI strains both at UTHSC and Princeton.

<!--As of July 2005, these lines are an average of 18 generations inbred.-->

There are approximately 48 of these advanced BXD strains, each of which archives approximately twice the recombinations present in a typical F2-derived recombinant inbred strain (Peirce et al. <A HREF="http://www.webqtl.org/reference.html" target="_blank" class="fs14">2003</a>).

<P class="subtitle">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mapping Algorithm:</P>

<Blockquote>
<P>Due to the very high density of markers, the mapping algorithm used to map BXD data sets has been modified and is a mixture of simple marker regression, linear interpolation, and standard Haley-Knott interval mapping. When two adjacent markers have identical SDPs, they will have identical linkage statistics, as will the entire interval between these two markers (assuming complete and error-free haplotype data for all strains). On a physical map the <A HREF="http://www.genenetwork.org/glossary.html#LRS" target="_blank" class="fs14">LRS</A> and the <A HREF="http://www.genenetwork.org/glossary.html#additive" target="_blank" class="fs14">additive effect</A> values will therefore be constant over this physical interval. Between neighboring markers that have different SDPs and that are separated by 1 cM or more, we use a conventional interval mapping method (Haley-Knott) combined with a Haldane estimate of genetic distance. When the interval is less than 1 cM, we simply interpolate linearly between markers based on a physical scale between those markers. The result of this <B>mixture mapping algorithm</B> is a linkage map of a trait that has an unusal profile that is particular striking on a physical (Mb) scale, with many plateaus, abrupt linear transitions between plateaus, and a few regions with the standard graceful curves typical of interval maps.</P>

<P class="subtitle">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Archival Genotypes:</P>

<Blockquote>
<B>Archival BXD Genotype file</B>: Prior to July 2005, the marker genotypes used to map all BXD data sets consisted of a set of 779 markers described by Williams and colleagues (2001) that also included a small number of additional SNPs from Tim Wiltshire and Mathew Pletcher (GNF, La Jolla), new microsatellite markers generated by Grant Morahan and Jing Gu (Msw type markers), and a few CTC markers by Jing Gu. This old marker data set was made obsolete by the ultra high density Illumina SNP genotype data generated Spring, 2005. The old genotype file is still available for use on the Archive site.

<!-- OLD TEXT used prior to June 2005

<P class="subtitle">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;About the genotypes used in these studies:</P>

<Blockquote>
WebQTL mapping algorithms rely on genotypes for the BXD strains that include both microsatellite markers (labeled <I>Mit</I> and <I>Msw</I>) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (labeled <I>Gnf</I>). The current set of markers (n = 779) have been carefully error-checked. Closely linked genetic markers often have the same strain distribution pattern (SDP) across the BXD strains. For computational efficiency, we only use a single marker associated with each SDP.
</Blockquote>


<Blockquote>
Marker-strain pairs for which we were missing genotypes were often inferred from flanking markers. In marker sets lacking genotypes for a particular strain, a note is included to that effect in the marker set description below.
</Blockquote>

<P class="subtitle">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;About the marker sets:</P>

<Blockquote> <U><B>Mit</B></U><br>
<I>Mit</I> markers, described by William Dietrich and colleagues (<a href="http://www.broad.mit.edu/cgi-bin/mouse/sts_info?database=mouserelease" target="_blank" class="fs14">1992</a>), are the most widely used of the three marker sets. These markers typically consist of regions of repeated dinucleotides (so-called CA repeat microsatellites) that vary in length among strains. The CA repeat polymorphisms are flanked by unique sequence that can be used to design polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers that will selectively amplify the intervening variable region. While many of the <i>Mit</i> markers have been typed in the BXD strain set by a number of investigators, the genotypes used here are those reported in the consensus map created by Williams and colleagues (<a href="http://www.genomebiology.com/2001/2/11/research/0046" target="_blank" class="fs14">2001</a>).

<br>
<br><i>Mit</i> marker names: D + (Chr of Marker) + Mit + (Order Found) <UL>
<LI>D indicates that the marker is a DNA segment.
<LI><i>Mit</i>  indicates that the marker was identified at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
<LI>Order Found indicates the order in which the markers were identified. </UL>
</Blockquote>

<Blockquote><B><U>Gnf</U></B>

<br><i>Gnf</i> markers are single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified between B6 and D2 by genomic sequence sampling. Polymorphisms were typed by Mathew Pletcher and Tim Wiltshire using the Sequenom MassEXTEND system (Wiltshire et al., <A HREF="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=12612341&dopt=Abstract" target="_blank" class="fs14">2003</A>) For BXD8 as well as BXD67 and BXD68, genotypes were ofteninferred from flanking markers. Each of the genotyping reactions was set up in duplicate. Physical positions were determined for each marker and integrated with previous BXD RI mapping data based on a combination of physical and genetic positions. Unsupported double crossovers were verified by manual inspection to ensure accuracy of calls. A full list of SNPs identified in the sequence sampling can be found at <a href="http://www.gnf.org/SNP/" class = "normalsize">http://www.gnf.org/SNP</a>.
<br>
<br><i>Gnf</i> marker names: S + (Chr of Marker) + Gnf + (Mb position) <UL>
<LI>S indicates the marker is a SNP
<LI><i>Gnf</i> indicates that the marker originated at the Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation.
<LI>Mb position may include decimal values. </UL>
</Blockquote>

<Blockquote><B><U>Msw</U></B>

<br><i>Msw</i> markers are variable length tracts of nucleotide repeats designed and tested by Grant Morahan, Keith Satterley, Robert W. Williams, and Jing Gu. In contrast to the variable CA repeats of Mit markers, the <i>Msw</i> markers exploit polymorphisms in tri- tetra-, penta-, and hexa-nucleotide repeats. <i>Msw</i> markers were typed by Shuhua Qi and Jing Gu at UTHSC using previously described methods (Williams et al. <a href="http://www.genomebiology.com/2001/2/11/research/0046" target="_blank" class="fs14">2001</a>). Genotypes for BXD67 and BXD68 were often inferred from flanking markers. Physical positions were determined for each marker by BLAT analysis of the microsatellite sequence against the most recent assembly of the mouse genome (currently mm5 of May 2004) and integrated with previous BXD RI mapping data based on a combination of physical and genetic positions.
<br>

<br><i>Msw</i> marker names: D + (Chr of Marker) + <i>Msw</i> + (Mb Position)<UL>
<LI>D indicates that the marker is a DNA segment <i>Msw</i> indicates the marker source.
<LI>Mb Position is marker position to the nearest megabase.
<LI>Mb position may include decimal values and, in rare cases, a letter suffix (a or b) if alternative primers were used to amplify the same repeat.
