In that case, we call that "map" in our database. On the following page, you can see: http://www.gramene.org/db/markers/marker_view?action=marker_search&marker_id=13157 in "Mappings", one column called "Map" has "LG-03".

Message-ID: First I want to congratulate Ken for the work at the marker search. The search speed is way faster now!. I have the MySQL db installed locally, but I can't find some data. I can't find what I call the "Clone sequences". For example, the marker Sorghum bicolor SSR "txp298" has a repeat motif like this: (AGA)23. I understand that the primers should flank this motif. I would like to find the sequences where the primer search took place, for example, for primer redesign. -- La web sin popups ni spyware: Usa Firefox en lugar de Internet Explorer From matthews at greengenes.cit.cornell.edu Sun Dec 18 23:09:15 2005 From: matthews at greengenes.cit.cornell.edu (Dave Matthews) Date: Sun, 18 Dec 2005 23:09:15 -0500 (EST) Subject: Botany or taxonomy text with clear (pen) drawings of florets, spikelets and spikes Message-ID: <200512190409.jBJ49Fhl001478@greengenes.cit.cornell.edu> Hi Maarten, > From maarten.vanginkel at dpi.vic.gov.au Fri Dec 16 22:17:09 2005 > > Dave, > > Do you know where I could find a botany or taxonomy text with clear (pen) > drawings of the florets, spikelets and spikes of wheat and its progenitors? > Most modern texts have photos, while I need the classical precise pen > drawings. > > Regards, > Maarten I'm stumped.

The treatment they are to complement will one day be http://herbarium.usu.edu/webmanual - as well as being published in Flora of North America vol. 24 (before the end of 2006). We shall put up the individual illustrations shortly. We shall be revising these illustrations to ensure that the distinguishing features, as reflected in Laura Morrison's key, are shown. I am glad that someone else, like me, is frustrated by the lack of illustrations to use when one is talking about the development of wheat. Incidentally, Nikolay Goncharov has a very interesting paper that pertains to some of the finer taxonomic distinctions that will be coming out in the Czech J. of Genetics and Plant Breeding in the near future - it is based on a presentation that he gave at the trit meeting in Prague this past summer.

We shall put up the individual illustrations shortly. We shall be revising these illustrations to ensure that the distinguishing features, as reflected in Laura Morrison's key, are shown. I am glad that someone else, like me, is frustrated by the lack of illustrations to use when one is talking about the development of wheat. Incidentally, Nikolay Goncharov has a very interesting paper that pertains to some of the finer taxonomic distinctions that will be coming out in the Czech J. of Genetics and Plant Breeding in the near future - it is based on a presentation that he gave at the trit meeting in Prague this past summer.

Copies should be available at libraries or germplasm units. Info for purchasing from ICARDA can be found here: http://www.icarda.org/Publications/Price_List/Book2/Book2.html In case the link doesn't work, here's the book title,etc: M.W. Slageren. 1994. Wild Wheats: a Monograph of Aegilops L. and Amblyopyrum (Jaub & Spach) Eig (Poaceae). Wageningen Agricultural University Papers 94-7. Wageningen Agricultural University & ICARDA. Finding good botanical illustrations of the wheats, either available in texts or on the internet, is fundamentally an issue of funding. There hasn't been a strong interest in supporting taxonomic work nor a recognition for its value. Similarly, the little work that has been supported has been largely undertaken with the presumption that photos are a suitable alternative to Herbarium specimens and illustrations. Regrettably, they're not. If WAU and ICARDA can be convinced to make the Aegilops illustrations available for posting on the GrainTax website, that would be a nice step forward. I also have other wheat illustrations done by the same artist as those provided by Mary Barkworth which could be posted provided copyright issues don't arise for their later publication. As the principal contributor to GrainTax (http://wheat.pw.usda.gov/ggpages/GrainTax/index.shtml), which links to the KSU Wheat Genetic Resources site (https://www.ksu.edu/wgrc/Taxonomy/taxintro.html), for most of the postings, I can speak to the desire for getting keys, drawings, etc. posted and universally available. Unfortunately, this is not sufficient to contend with the reality that such work doesn't attract funds. Thus, GrainTax is still "in-process". Unless there are plentiful volunteer hours available, this type of useful taxonomic information can't get beyond back burner status. Perhaps your frustrations in searching for good illustrations will help stir up some interest in addressing the funding issue.
