Abstract
A set of 72 microsatellite markers distributed evenly among 24 linkage groups were selected from the published genetic linkage maps of Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. In two normal diploid full-sib families, the test for Mendelian inheritance showed that genotypic segregation deviations were not significant at all analysed loci. To estimate microsatellite-centromere map distances, four meiotic gynogenetic diploid lines were produced by the activation of eggs using UV irradiated sperm of red seabream Pagrus major and cold-shock treatment to block the extrusion of the second polar body. Under the assumption of complete interference, 21 markers were located in the centromeric region, 39 in the telomeric region and the rest in the intermediate region of linkage groups. A total of 192 mitotic gynogenetic diploids from one spawn were identified by these markers. Genotype analysis showed that the number of homozygous individuals decreased as microsatellite-centromere map distance increased on each linkage group.

Abstract
Mytilus coruscus (family Mytilidae) is one of the most important marine shellfish species in Korea. During the past few decades, this species has become endangered due to the loss of habitats and overfishing. Despite this species’ importance, information on its genetic background is scarce. In this study, we developed microsatellite markers for M. coruscus using next-generation sequencing. A total of 263,900 raw reads were obtained from a quarter-plate run on the 454 GS-FLX titanium platform, and 176,327 unique sequences were generated with an average length of 381 bp; 2569 (1.45%) sequences contained a minimum of five di- to tetra-nucleotide repeat motifs. Of the 51 loci screened, 46 were amplified successfully, and 22 were polymorphic among 30 individuals, with seven of trinucleotide repeats and three of tetranucleotide repeats. All loci exhibited high genetic variability, with an average of 17.32 alleles per locus, and the mean observed and expected heterozygosities were 0.67 and 0.90, respectively. In addition, cross-amplification was tested for all 22 loci in another congener species, M. galloprovincialis. None of the primer pairs resulted in effective amplification, which might be due to their high mutation rates. Our work demonstrated the utility of next-generation 454 sequencing as a method for the rapid and cost-effective identification of microsatellites. The high degree of polymorphism exhibited by the 22 newly developed microsatellites will be useful in future conservation genetic studies of this species.

Abstract
For genetic analysis and linkage mapping of bay scallop (Argopecten irradians), a set of 120 novel simple sequence repeat markers were developed from microsatellite-enriched libraries and expressed sequence tags. An inter-subspecies hybrid bay scallop family (CC5) of 46 progeny was analyzed as the reference population to confirm polymorphism and test the segregation patterns of these loci. A total of 104 microsatellite markers were polymorphic in the reference family, among which 36 in female, 28 in male, and 40 in both parents, respectively. Linkage analysis allowed mapping these markers to 15 linkage groups, which is close to the haploid chromosome number of bay scallop (n = 16). Analysis of the 40 markers segregating in both parents showed a higher recombination rate in the female parent, with the average of female-to-male recombination ratio of 1.09:1 between linked pairs of markers. When null alleles were considered, there were 17 loci showing segregation distortion at the 5% significance level using the chi-square test. The microsatellite markers developed in this study provide a useful resource for future linkage mapping and quantitative loci analysis in A. irradians.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are responsible for the recognition of specific pathogen-associated molecular patterns and consequently activate signal pathways leading to inflammatory and interferon responses. The region surrounding several TLRs was previously found to be associated with resistance to specific disease. Hence, we determined the location of 11 TLRs in Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) using polymorphic microsatellite markers. TLR1 and TLR3 were located on linkage group (LG) 21 and 7, respectively. Membrane TLR5 and soluble TLR5 were mapped to LG22. TLR7 and TLR8 were mapped to LG3. TLR9 was found on LG1 and TLR14 and TLR21 were located on the same linkage group, LG10. TLR22 was found on LG8. Interestingly, TLR2 was mapped with the previously reported Poli9-8TUF microsatellite marker which is tightly associated with lymphocystis virus disease resistance. Therefore, TLR2 is a candidate gene for resistance to lymphocystis disease. These results imply that the location of a TLR associated with a particular disease may be valuable for the research on the relationship between host immune response and disease resistance.

Abstract
Background Comparative mapping is a powerful tool to transfer genomic information from sequenced genomes to closely related species for which whole genome sequence data are not yet available. However, such an approach is still very limited in catfish, the most important aquaculture species in the United States. This project was initiated to generate additional BAC end sequences and demonstrate their applications in comparative mapping in catfish. Results We reported the generation of 43,000 BAC end sequences and their applications for comparative genome analysis in catfish. Using these and the additional 20,000 existing BAC end sequences as a resource along with linkage mapping and existing physical map, conserved syntenic regions were identified between the catfish and zebrafish genomes. A total of 10,943 catfish BAC end sequences (17.3%) had significant BLAST hits to the zebrafish genome (cutoff value ≤ e-5), of which 3,221 were unique gene hits, providing a platform for comparative mapping based on locations of these genes in catfish and zebrafish. Genetic linkage mapping of microsatellites associated with contigs allowed identification of large conserved genomic segments and construction of super scaffolds. Conclusion BAC end sequences and their associated polymorphic markers are great resources for comparative genome analysis in catfish. Highly conserved chromosomal regions were identified to exist between catfish and zebrafish. However, it appears that the level of conservation at local genomic regions are high while a high level of chromosomal shuffling and rearrangements exist between catfish and zebrafish genomes. Orthologous regions established through comparative analysis should facilitate both structural and functional genome analysis in catfish.

Abstract
A genetic linkage map of the channel catfish genome (N=29) was constructed using EST-based microsatellite and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in an interspecific reference family. A total of 413 microsatellites and 125 SNP markers were polymorphic in the reference family. Linkage analysis using JoinMap 4.0 allowed mapping of 331 markers (259 microsatellites and 72 SNPs) to 29 linkage groups. Each linkage group contained 3-18 markers. The largest linkage group contained 18 markers and spanned 131.2 cM, while the smallest linkage group contained 14 markers and spanned only 7.9 cM. The linkage map covered a genetic distance of 1811 cM with an average marker interval of 6.0 cM. Sex-specific maps were also constructed; the recombination rate for females was 1.6 times higher than that for males. Putative conserved syntenies between catfish and zebrafish, medaka, and Tetraodon were established, but the overall levels of genome rearrangements were high among the teleost genomes. This study represents a first-generation linkage map constructed by using EST-derived microsatellites and SNPs, laying a framework for large-scale comparative genome analysis in catfish. The conserved syntenies identified here between the catfish and the three model fish species should facilitate structural genome analysis and evolutionary studies, but more importantly should facilitate functional inference of catfish genes. Given that determination of gene functions is difficult in nonmodel species such as catfish, functional genome analysis will have to rely heavily on the establishment of orthologies from model species.

Abstract
The large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) is an economically important marine fish in China. Inheritance of 22 heterozygous microsatellite loci was examined in normal crossed diploid families and meio-gynogenetic families in P. crocea. Two gynogenetic families were produced via inhibition of the second polar body in eggs fertilized with UV-irradiated sperm. The ratio of gynogenesis was proven to be 100% and 96.9% in the two families, respectively. Of the 22 examined loci, 4 showed a segregation distortion in both control and gynogenetic families. Microsatellite-centromere (M-C) map distances were examined using 18 loci with normal Mendelian segregation. Estimated recombination rates ranged between 0 and 1.0 under the assumption of complete interference. High recombinant frequencies between heterozygous markers and the centromere were found in large yellow croaker, as in other teleosts. The average recombination frequency was 0.586. Ten loci showed high M-C recombination with frequency greater than 0.67. M-C distances provide useful information for gene mapping in large yellow croaker.

Abstract
This study presents linkage maps for the Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) based on 180 microsatellite DNA markers. Linkage mapping was performed using three F1 outbred families, and a composite linkage map for each sex was generated by incorporating map information from the multiple families. A total of 160 markers are placed on the consolidated female map and 167 markers on the male map. The numbers of linkage groups in the composite female and male maps are 19 and 18, respectively; however, by aligning the two maps, 18 linkage groups are formed, which are consistent with the haploid chromosome number of H. discus hannai. The female map spans 888.1 cM (Kosambi) with an average spacing of 6.3 cM; the male map spans 702.4 cM with an average spacing of 4.7 cM. However, we encountered several linkage groups that show a high level of heterogeneity in recombination rate between families even within the same sex, which reduces the precision of the consolidated maps. Nevertheless, we suggest that the composite maps are of significant potential use as a scaffold to further extend the coverage of the H. discus hannai genome with additional markers.
