The number of SNPs has been increased to 6056 markers in the Linkage V panel. Importantly, the marker lists for the GoldenGate and Infinium panels are further optimized for genetic spacing with the goal of maximizing information content in your study. Additionally, the linkage panels on the Infinium and GoldenGate platforms are designed to have a high degree of overlapping SNP markers so that samples run on the separate platforms can be included together in a single analysis. We used Genome Build 36.
