Applying Small-Scale DNA Signatures as an Aid in Assembling Soybean Chromosome Sequences

<table>Physical (horizontal) versus genetic (vertical) distance for soybean chromosome 6.  Note the flat region in the middle of the chromosome, corresponding to a portion of the chromosome with few recombination events.  This hinders accurate marker-based placement of scaffolds in that region. The genetic distances are taken from the Soybean Consensus Map 4.0 [<a href="/journals/abi/2010/976792/#B3">3</a>, <a href="/journals/abi/2010/976792/#B4">4</a>].</table>
