This work along with [15•] give convincing demonstrations of the syntenic relationships between oat and wheat versus other cereals. RFLP marker DNAs were mapped across species and clear conservation of gene order in a large scale found. This means that mapping data of any cereal can be applied across all the cereal species.

Science 1995, 269:1714-1718. A landmark paper, demonstrating the feasibility of QTL use in plant improvement and the utility of interspecies comparisons for cloning by mapping. Mutations for seed mass, seed shattering and short-day flowering in sorghum, rice, maize and other cereals were mapped and shown to be in corresponding genes in the conserved locations. This means that once a gene for an agricultural trait has been characterized in one cereal, it most likely is a very similar gene in a corresponding location in any other cereal. In addition, useful mutations - once isolated as DNA and characterized in one cereal - could be used in genetically modifying another cereal.

Theor Appl Genet 1996, 92:145-150. A detailed demonstration of segregation distortion and the usefulness of detailed genetic maps for using QTL to isolate corresponding major genes. Segregation of several phenotypic traits were correlated with RFLP markers and putative locations of major QTLs identified using MapMaker software.

Breeding Science 1995, 45:373-376. First solid evidence of a large duplicated segment in the rice genome. A set of RFLP markers were found to map into two locations in conserved order in chromosomes 11 and 12, indicating a large duplication in the genome. Looking at other rice varieties and species, one could unravel the evolutionary history of large duplications and the evolution of coding sequences in the two corresponding segments.

First study on successful physical sorting of gene-rich areas of any cereal genome, in this case maize. GC-ratio-specific sorting of DNA fragments could be used to purify gene-rich DNAs of the maize genome, making it possible to sequence efficiently such genomic regions for open reading frames.
