Rapid Communication - Matrix Generator (MG): a Program for Creating 0/1 Matrix from Sized DNA Fragments
ZHOU Shi-Liang, Peter QIAN
Abstract
A computer program called Matrix Generator (MG) was developed for transforming sized DNA fragments into a presence/absence data matrix. Dynamic computation was run to avoid errors introduced using fixed-bin-width arithmetic. MG can be used with bin sized fragments from AFLP, ISSR, RAPD, RFLP, and other molecular markers. The accuracy of MG was tested using fAFLP data of Abelia and the results show that MG results in higher resolution of taxa and is more reliable than programs of the similar usage.
