| Description: | The ARKdb database system provides comprehensive public repositories for genome mapping data from farmed and other animal species, providing a resource similar in function to that offered by GDB or MGD for human or mouse mapping data respectively. Data stored includes details of loci and markers, references/papers, authors, genetic linkage map assignments, cytogenetic map assignments, experimental techniques, PCR primers and conditions and any other data pertaining to genome mapping. The data is entered by curators assigned to the individual species and funded by grant funding from a variety of sources. For details of the curators and editors for a particular species database, please refer to the links listed on the species list page. |
