A primary genetic map of markers of human chromosome 10.

We have constructed a primary genetic map for human chromosome 10 from 13 polymorphic marker systems defining 11 loci, using a new gene mapping algorithm implemented in the computer program GMS. The loci form a continuous genetic map that spans approximately 116 cM in males and 170 cM in females. These loci provide regularly spaced anchor points for linkage studies, except for one interval that is 28 cM in males and 64 cM in females.
