In 1992, we described a second-generation genetic linkage map of the human genome.
Using 1,267 new microsatellite markers, we now present a new genetic linkage map
containing a total of 2,066 (AC), short tandem repeats, 60% of which show a heterozygosity
of over 0.7. Statistical linkage analysis based on the genotyping of eight large CEPH families
placed these markers in the 23 linkage groups. The map includes 1,266 intervals and spans
a total distance of 3690 centiMorgans (cM). A total of 1,041 markers could be ordered with …
