2019-Sep-24: BXD Genotypes file: Sequence-based improvements coming soon
The BXD sequencing consortium has generated full genome sequence for 152 extant BXD strains. Dr. David Ashbrook has extracted the most informative 40,000 SNPs from sequence data, and compared sequence-based genotypes with those based on array platforms (see entries below). In general there is excellent concordance for all but a handful of the BXD strains that are in widespread use (BXD1 to BXD102). However, there are some problems and mixups that we list below. We are currently working on harmonizing data when possible, and understanding and fixing errors, when not.
This evaluation of genotypes is based on data extracted from whole-genome sequencing of BXD male spleen samples obtained in January 2017 from the Jackson Laboratory whenever possible, and from the UTHSC colony in all other cases. All animals were born between January and December 2016.
BXD65b (sourced from JAX). The sequence-based genotypes correlate better to array-based 2017 genotypes of BXD65 and BXD65a than with the BXD65b array-based genotypes. It is possible that there are two somewhat distinct sub-strains now called BXD65b?one at JAX and one at UTHSC. Recommended Action:Sourcing BXD65b animals from JAX.
BXD53 array-based genotypes do not correlate well with sequence-based genotypes for BXD53/2. BXD53 was rederived a second time by JAX and is now referred to formally at BXD53/2RwwJ (Stock 017749). The likely reason for the discrepancy is that we sequenced BXD53/2RwwJ (Stock 017749) rather than the older BXD53 (sourced from UTHSC) for array-based genotyping. BXD53 sequence-based genotypes correlate well with eQTL data for BXD53. Recommended Action:If using BXD53/2RwwJ, please obtain current sequence-based genotypes from David Ashbrook.
BXD68 animals at UTHSC used from about 2012 to 2017 were BXD34 animals. Genotypes in the 2017 array-based file HAVE or HAVE NOT been corrected. We have corrected this error in some phenotype data sets. BXD68 from The Jackson Laboratory are genuine BXD68. We sequenced BXD68 DNA from JAX. Recommended Action: None unless you have used BXD68 animals obtained from UTHSC between 2012 and 2017. If so, these animals should be relabeled BXD34.
BXD81 sequence-based genotypes correlate well with the new array-based genotypes (r = 0.81) but less well with old array-based genotypes (r = 0.66). This is presumably due to more complete inbreeding. The new sequence-based genotypes are for BXD81 sources from JAX. Recommended Action: None
BXD88 sequence-based genotypes do not correlate well with either of the two array-based genotype files (r = 0.50 and 0.54). Like BXD53, BXD88 was rederived a second time by JAX and is now referred to formally at BXD88/2RwwJ (Stock 007110). BXD88 was admixed at some point in the last decade that has since been rederived. BXD88/2RwwJ is only available at JAX. Recommended Action:Sourcing BXD88/2RwwJ from JAX; do not treat as equivalent to old BXD88.
BXD100 (JAX stock 007143) sequence-based genotypes correlates well with the older array-based genotypes (r = 0.96) but not so well with newer 2017 array data (r = 0.55). This suggests some admixture in the last decade at UTHSC that has since been fixed. Recommended Action:If you used BXD100s between 2006 and 2014, we recommend using genotypes from the older array-based file for this strain. If you are using new BXD100 animals sourced from JAX, then use the newer 2017 array-based genotypes or the sequence-based genotypes.
BXD151 (UTHSC stock) sequence-based genotypes do not correlate with the array-based genotypes at all (r = -0.79 and -0.06). BXD151 sequence-based genotypes correlate very well with older array-based sequence for the now (formally) extinct BXD128a (r = 0.97 and 0.99 with the two array-based files). We need to check sequence of BXD151/RwwJ (JAX 029868). Recommended Action:None. It appears likely that BXD151 may be equivalent to what we used to call BXD128a. BXD128a is no longer officially available and we will retain the name BXD151.
BXD155 (UTHSC stock) sequence-based genotypes do not correlate with arrays (r = 0.21 and 0.18). BXD155 has an excellent correlation with previous array-based genotypes for strain BXD152 (r = 0.95 and 0.95 with arrays, 0.99 with sequence). Likely reading error or strain swap at UTHSC. BXD152 (Stock 029869, non-agouti black coat color) can be obtained from JAX, but BXD155 (gray coat color) is not yet available from JAX. Recommended Action:Check with David Ashbrook or Rob Williams on whether this issue has been resolved. It seems likely that the BXD155 sample that we sequenced was actually at BXD152.
BXD162 (UTHSC stock) sequence-based genotypes correlate poorly well with new array genotypes (r = 0.65 and 0.69). This strain also has a reasonable correlation with BXD170 in older array genotypes (r = 0.7). Possible admixture. BXD162 is not yet available from JAX. Recommended Action:Check with David Ashbrook or Rob Williams in you use this strain regarding correct nomenclature.
BXD194 (UTHSC stock) sequence-based genotypes correlated with BXD87 (JAX stock) sequence-based genotypes. Probably a sample error at UTHSC when preparing samples for sequencing. We need to check the JAX BXD194/RwwJ (Stock 030878). Recommended Action:Check with David Ashbrook or Rob Williams in you use this strain regarding correct nomenclature.

2018-12-19: BXD Genotypes file status (December 2018)
In September and October 2016, Robert Williams, Jesse Ingels, Lu Lu, and Danny Arends released new genotype files for many of the original BXD strains (BXD1 through BXD102), and for all of the new strains (BXD104 to BXD220). Genotypes were generated at about 74,000 SNPs using the GigaMUGA array developed by Drs. Fernando Pardo-Manuel de Villena (University of North Carolina) and Gary Churchill (The Jackson Laboratory). Genotypes were generated at GeneSeek (Neogen Inc) with financial support from the University of Tennessee Center for Integrative and Translational Genomics.
UpdateThe new genotypes are now available in GeneNetwork as the 2019 Genotype file. All SNPs were mapped to the older July 2007 mm9 NCBI Build 37 assembly and to the newer Dec 2011, mm10, GRCm38 assembly. Of the 74,000 GigaMUGA and many other markers we have typed, only about 6800 are useful (informative) in defining recombination events in the current set of BXDs. These informative markers either define unique recombination patterns across the 198 BXD strains (including extinct strains) or they define the proximal and distal ends of regions that do not contain any known recombinations in the BXD family.
This file provides consensus genotypes for 198 BXD strains and for the two progenitor strains and the reciprocal F1s. Of the 198 BXD strains, 191 are independent, whereas 7 are substrains (e.g., BXD48 and BXD48a). This file provides approximate locations of 10300 recombinations, an average of 52 per strain. Genotypes were generated using Affymetrix, MUGA, MegaMUGA, and GigaMUGA Illumina platforms. Microsatellites and eQTL genotypes were generated by the Williams/Lu laboratory. Unknown genotypes were imputed as B or D, or were called as H (heterozygous) if the genotype was uncertain. Genotypes were manually curated by RW Williams. Genotypes were smoothed to remove unlikely recombination events. Almost all recombinations are supported by multiple markers, although only one or two representative markers may be provided in this file. The original parent file (BXD_El_Grande_Master_Used_to_Proof_Final_Genotypes_2016.xlxs) contains data for approximately 37000 markers. A subset of the most informative 7300 markers are included here. Genotypes for Chr Y and Chr M are provisional.
The file does not include any markers for Chr Y or the mitochondrion.
As of December 2018 GeneNetwork uses mm10 coordinates for mapping functions.
(Updated Dec 19, 2018 by RW Williams)
2018-09-12: GeneNetwork 1 will be supported in 2018 but GeneNetwork 2 will become the main production server
GeneNetwork 2 is ready for testing and research projects. GeneNetwork 1 (GN1) and GeneNetwork 2 (GN2) share the a single database, but they use different code and algorithms for mapping and data analysis. There are some benefits of using GN2, including more powerful linear mixed model mapping methods that account for kinship structure.
The interface of GN2 is still a work in progress. Please send any suggestion, requests, or bug reports to rwilliams@uthsc.edu.

2016-02-16: EPFL/LISP BXD CD+HFD Subcutaneous WAT Affy MTA 1.0 GeneLevel Main (Feb16) RMA profiling by array entered into GeneNetwork.
The BXD genetic reference population is a recombinant inbred panel descended from crosses between the C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2 (D2) strains of mice, which segregate for about 5 million sequence variants. Recently, some these variants have been established with effects on general metabolic phenotypes such as glucose response and bone strength. In this study, we examined both genetic variants across 40 strains of BXD and the two founder lines, in addition to a major environmental influence?long term feeding with chow diet (CD) or high fat diet (HFD)?to see how metabolic gene expression varies by genotype and environment, and gene-by-environment interactions. The basic heart phenotypes quantified in these cohorts were not affected by HFD feeding (e.g. blood pressure and heart rate).

Please contact Lu Lu or Robert Williams regarding status of this data set. Animals were generated at UTHSC by Lu Lu and colleagues. The spleen of untreated young adult mice was profiled using the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST array that contains approximately 34,728 probe sets that target approximately 29,000 well defined transcripts (RefSeq mRNA isoforms) and essentially all known protein coding genes in mouse. This array is an "exon style" array with multiple probes in all known exons of each gene (an average of about 27 per gene) and is an abridged version of the Affymetrix Exon 1.0 ST array. However, it also does contain some probes that target non-coding RNAs and even miRNA precursors (search "ncrna").This dataset is now public, please contact Robert Williams University of Tennessee Health Science Center for further information. (Implemented by Lu Lu, Arthur Centeno and Rob Williams).

2014-08-10: RTI RCMRC BXD Fecal Metabolites CD+HFD (Aug14) Log2 profiling by array entered into GeneNetwork.
The goal of this project is to study expression of a large set of defined and undefined metabolites in fecal samples from a genetically diverse set of BXD mouse strains (females) raised either on a high fat diet or low fat diet. Samples were taken from animals at sacrifices directly from the large intestine.
Aim: Effect of genetics and diet on fecal metabolomics\ Use UPLC-MS Broad Spectrum Metabolomics to study:Mice fecal samples To capture the most signal, all samples were analyzed under positive and negative ion mode using a reversed-phase separation. Please contact Robert Clark RTI International for further information. (Implemented by Robert Clark, Arthur Centeno and Rob Williams).
