Description
This track shows locations of Sequence Tagged Site (STS) markers
along the draft assembly.
Method
These STSs have been mapped using
either genetic mapping (Genethon and Marshfield maps),
radiation hybridization mapping (Stanford, Whitehead RH, and GeneMap99 maps) or
YAC mapping (the Whitehead YAC map) techniques.
Prior to August 2001, this track also
showed the approximate positions of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) mapped clones.
In August 2001 and later assemblies, the FISH clones are displayed in a separate
track.
Using the Filter
The track filter can be used to change the color or include/exclude a map data set
within the track. This is helpful when many items are shown in the track
display, especially when only some are relevant to the current task. To use the
filter:
- In the pulldown menu, select the map whose data you would like to highlight or exclude in the display. By default, the "All Genetic" option is selected.
- Choose the color or display characteristic that will be used to highlight or
include/exclude the filtered items. If "exclude" is chosen, the browser will not
display data from the map selected in the pulldown list. If "include" is selected, the browser
will display only data from the selected map.
- When you have finished configuring the filter, click the Submit button.
