In an attempt to identify and characterize the Yd2 gene, a map-based cloning strategy has been undertaken in our laboratory. Linkage maps in two barley populations have been constructed placing 29 molecular markers, the Yd2 gene, and the centromere on these maps. Twelve of these markers are within 1cM of Yd2. Physical mapping of the Yd2 region revealed a physical linkage between the two loci Xbcd134 and Ylp. Because these loci are separated by O.5cM on the Proctor/Shannon map, a relationship between physical to genetic distance around this immediate area could be calculated as lcM being less than 360kb. Screening of barley bacterial artificial chromosome filters identified a number of Yd2 linked BACs forming a partial contig over the Yd2 region. Further chromosome walks will continue until a complete contig over the Yd2 gene is constructed.
