The high-resolution maize genetic maps IBM2 2005 Neighbors and cIBM 2005 were obtained from MaizeGDB. Sequences of the markers were retrieved from GenBank and searched against the TIGR Rice Pseudomolecules, release 5. Only markers that are at least 70% identical to the rice genome over 70% of their length, or that contain 150 bp aligning without gaps to the rice genome were taken into account.
For both maps, syntenic blocks were determined by calculating the colinear order of the maize markers on the maize map and on the Rice Pseudomolecules.

• cIBM 2005 map

  A total of 1640 markers were found to be at least 70% identical to the TIGR Rice Pseudomolecules over 70% of their length or to align to a portion of the rice genome over at least 150bp. The top 5 alignments are displayed. Markers aligning to a unique position on the rice genome are denoted with a star (*).
