Genotype dataset and genetic linkage map of Labeo catla generated using genotyping-by-sequencing

This dataset contains the SNP genotype dataset and the corresponding genetic linkage map of Labeo catla generated using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS). The genotype dataset includes 16,495 informative SNP markers identified from the CF11 mapping family and was used as input for linkage map construction using JoinMap v4.1 software. The genetic linkage map file contains 782 SNP markers mapped across 25 linkage groups, corresponding to the haploid chromosome number of Labeo catla. The file includes marker identifiers, linkage group assignments, and genetic positions in centimorgans (cM). These datasets were generated as part of the study titled: "First high-density SNP-based genetic linkage map and genome scaffold anchoring in Labeo catla". This dataset enables reproduction of the linkage map construction and supports genome assembly anchoring and downstream genomic analyses.File formats:- Genotype dataset: JoinMap input file (.loc)- Linkage map dataset: JoinMap output file (.txt)All markers were derived from genotyping-by-sequencing and filtered based on missing data threshold, segregation distortion, and marker quality criteria as described in the associated manuscript.
