Recombination rates along the genome were interpolated from the same linkage map that was used to anchor the assembly. Recombination rates are assumed to be uniform between linkage map markers. Thus, the genetic distance between a linkage map marker and a SNP is linearly dependent on their physical distance. Given a SNP S between two linkage map markers M0 and M1 the genetic distance between S and M0 GM0−S is given by GM0−S=GM0−M1*PM0−SPM0−M1 where P are physical distances in base pairs.
