cultural_requirements: Three methods are available for mapping centromeres relative to flanking gene loci: (i) tetrad analysis with ordered asci (or in unordered asci having other known centromere markers); (ii) duplication coverage of the flanking gene in a segment carrying gene loci known to be located in a given arm; (iii) cotranslocation of the flanking gene, together with other loci whose arm is known, to the arm of a known centric chromosome. (See reference 808.) Method ii is the least laborious when appropriate rearrangements are available for a "left-right" test. Linkage group arms were defined as left and right (R) (47), using mt, pe, ser-1, pdx-1, ilv-1, rib-1, and nt as reference markers.
