The RIIs of 33XC (slow multiplying parental strain) AFLP markers in the progeny of the 2 genetic crosses between 17XYM and 33XC of P. y. yoelii are shown after multiplication rate selection in mice. (A–C) RIIs of the 33XC AFLP markers are plotted against each other for the progeny of each cross in the first, second, and third passages, respectively. Thus, the x- and y-axes represent the RIIs of the 33XC AFLP markers from the first and second cross progeny, respectively. Of the 108 P. y. yoelii 33XC AFLP markers analyzed, 3 markers [33XC CA05TT 17XYM (red circle), 33XC AG01AG 17XYM (red square), and 33XC AG01TA 17XYM (red triangle)] had RIIs of <0.20 (area in dashed light blue lines) after the first blood passage in both crosses. Two additional markers, 33XC CA05TA 17XYM (gray diamond) and 33XC GT02TT 17XYM (green diamond), were strongly reduced in both crosses only after the second and third blood passages, respectively. A yellow square represents a marker, 33X AA01CT 17XYM, that was not reduced by growth selection in the progeny of either cross but was found to be genetically linked with the 3 markers, 33XC CA05TT 17XYM, 33XC AG01AG 17XYM, and 33XC AG01TA 17XYM, under early strong growth selection.
