MAIZE GENOME ASSEMBLY

[Ed Coe]

A milestone has been reached in the Maize Mapping Project!

BAC CONTIGS AND GENETIC/PHYSICAL ANCHORING ARE NOW POSTED FOLLOWING 
COMPLETION OF PHASE I OF MANUAL EDITING!

Please help us toward refining the community resource during Phase II 
editing, by reviewing the results and status at the FPC site,
www.genome.arizona.edu/fpc/maize/
and at the iMap site,
www.maizemap.org/iMapDB/iMap.html

Your inputs, corrections, and comments are urgently sought now, and at 
any time.  Please send to me your data that have not yet been 
incorporated (e.g., probe addressing data on BACs; genetic mapping 
data), and possible corrections.

Watch for a substantially upgraded IBM2 neighbors map, and future postings.

Zealously,
Ed Coe
