Figure 1From: A BAC pooling strategy combined with PCR-based screenings in a large, highly repetitive genome enables integration of the maize genetic and physical mapsSchematic display of BAC pooling strategy for six different matrices. Two hundred eighty eight 384-well microtiter plates containing 110,592 individual BAC clones were arranged in a three-dimensional square consisting of 48 ranks in all three axes (x, y, and z). Each pooled BAC DNA consists of DNAs isolated from 2,304 BAC clones simultaneously.Back to article page
