Microsatellite-centromere mapping in Cynoglossus semilaevis using gynogenetic diploid families produced by the use of homologous and non-homologous sperm.

Twenty-one microsatellite markers were studied in three meiogynogenetic families of Cynoglossus semilaevis gunther for centromere mapping using half-tetrad analysis. Among the 13 mapped loci, 10 were estimated to be located in the telomeric region, one in the centromeric region, and two in the intermediate region of the chromosome. This study provides a basis for constructing a linkage map of C. semilaevis.
