Description
The Mouse Diversity Genotyping Array (MDA) is a custom Affymetrix array designed by Drs. Fernando Pardo-Manuel de Villena and Gary Churchill. The MDA includes 623,124 probes designed to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 916,269 invariant genomic probes that are targeted to functional elements and known segmental duplications in the mouse genome.
The MDA has been applied to assay genetic diversity of thousands of mouse strains, strain panels, outbred and wild-caught mice.

FTP Data Download
Raw and processed MDA data from 1902 samples are available as download as CEL files and as an SQLite database.
MDA Probe Browser
The MDA probe browser provides a visualization of raw probe intensity data in genomic region of interest.
Mouse Phylogeny Viewer
MDA data were used generate genome-wide haplotype blocks structure of 198 mouse strains. (Wang et at., 2012)

Haplotype Reconstruction
MDA data were used to reconstruct the haplotypes of recombinant inbred strains (AXB/BXA, LXS and BXD) and chromosome substitution strains (B6.A, B6.PWD and B6.MSM). We provide an interactive tool for viewing and data download. (Simecek et al., unpubl.)

Mouse GWAS
MDA genotyping of the Mouse Hybrid Diversity Panel improves the resolution of association mapping. (Rau et al., 2015)
