Abstrakt: Cloned DNA libraries in bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) are the most widely used form of large- insert DNA libraries. BAC libraries are typically represented by ordered clones derived from genomic DNA of a particular organism. In the case of large eukaryotic genomes, whole-genome libraries consist of a hundred thousand to a million clones, which make their handling and screening a daunting task. The labor and cost of working with whole-genome libraries can be greatly reduced by constructing a library derived from a smaller part of the genome. Here we describe construction of BAC libraries from mitotic chromosomes purifi ed by fl ow cytometric sorting. Chromosome-specifi c BAC libraries facilitate positional gene cloning, physical mapping, and sequencing in complex plant genomes.
