Placement of candidate genes on the genetic linkage map. 82 genes were placed near the region responsible for eye absence, 131 genes near the region responsible for orange (light/dark) and 177 genes near the region responsible for absence of pigment [8]. Shown in pink are a selection of genes from those lists. *Indicates that a gene was differentially expressed between CAVE_rr and SURF_rs samples. ^Indicates a gene that was found through our analysis that had been found also in the previous mapping analyses [8, 11]. Genes marked in blue were placed on the map by genotyping individuals from an existing backcross [8] and the gene name is present next to the genetic marker from the backcross for which there was the highest agreement
