DELETION MUTANTS of wheat chromosomes (Endo, 1995; Endo and Gill, 1996) have proven to be valuable tools for mapping molecular markers and morphological characters to physical segments of chromosomes. By allocating markers to these types of chromosomes (Werner et al., 1992; Hohmann et al., 1994, 1995; Mickelson-Young et al., 1995; Gill et al., 1996a,b) the validity of maps based on conventional recombination studies can be confirmed. In addition, deletion-based maps have the advantage of not requiring complete synapsis and recombination of pairing chromosomes which are essential for conventional mapping analyses. Structural differences between pairing chromosomes can ...
