Cross Type

Use the drop-down menu to specify the experimental crossing type.

 

Note: As this parameter is used in multiple processes, actual options might vary.

Cross types are described in the following table:

Cross Type

Description

BC1

Backcross of the F1 lines to P1 (data should be AA and AB genotypes).

BC2

Backcross of the F2 lines to P2 (data should be AB and BB genotypes).

F2

F2 intercross of two F1 lines generated by homozygous parental lines P1 and P2.

RILself or RI1

Selfing to generate recombinant inbred lines.

RILsib

Sibling pair mating to produce recombinant inbred lines.

DH or RI0

Generation of a doubled-haploid line.

AIL or SFn

Selfing on an inbred line followed by random mating over n-1 generations.

IRILself

Intercrossed recombinant inbred line formed by n generations of random mating prior to selfing.

B1n

Backcross design F1xP1, where n is the Genotyping Generation (the number of backcrosses to P1).

B2n

Backcross design F1xP2, where n is the Genotyping Generation (the number of backcrosses to P2).

RI2

Recombinant inbred via random mating.

RFn

Randomly mated generation n-times intercrossed.

T(B1)SFn

Testcross of SFn to P1.

T(B2)SFn

Testcross of SFn to P2.

T(B1)RFn

Testcross of RFn to P1

T(B2)RFn

Testcross of RFn to P2

T(SFm)SFn

Testcross of SFn for m generations.
