A genome mapping package has been developed for reading and assembling data from clones analysed by restriction enzyme fragmentation and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The package comprises: data entry; matching; assembly; statistical analysis; modelling. Data entry can be either manual or by a semiautomatic system based on a scanning densitometer. The primary emphasis in the analytical routines is on flexibility and interactive convenience, so that the operator has full knowledge of and control over the growing map, but a variety of automatic options are included. The package continually grows to meet the needs of the Caenorhabditis project.
