Maize 1C = 2634 Mb Tomato 1C = 916 Mb Arabidopsis 1C = 157 Mb
77% of the DNA is in heterochromatin 23% of DNA is in euchromatin
77% of the DNA is in heterochromatin 23% of the DNA is in euchromatin Thus, 0.23 x 916 Mb = 211 Mb

177 BACs FISHED 126 BACS (74%) successfully localized. RESULTS SO FAR
177 BACs FISHED 51 failed to localize because they either gave no FISH signal or there was more than one signal in spite of CISS hybridization. 126 BACS (74%) successfully localized. RESULTS SO FAR
Of 126 BACs localized 22 (17.5%) FISHed to wrong chromosomes
Of 126 BACs localized 22 (17.5%) FISHed to wrong chromosomes Of these, 11 have been checked by sequencing: 7 were overgo false positives 1 was due to a picking error 1 was due to a typographical error 2 were due to mapping errors

FUTURE ACTIVITIES an increasing emphasis on defining the size of gaps in sequencing 1) within BACs, 2) between contigs, 3) between contigs and euchromatin- heterochromatin borders
