Definition
the determination of relative positions of genes along the chromosome |

|
Term
|
Definition
Genes that are located on the same chromosome and do not undergo independent assortment but are instead transmitted together
they have less than 50% recombination frequency |

|
|
Term
Linkage between two genes is a measure of... |
|
Definition
the probability that the two genes are being transmitted together to the offspring |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
illustrates the linear order of genes along the chromosome with distances between adjacent genes proportional to the recombination frequency between them |
|
|
Term
The unit of distance on a genetic map |

Term
One map unit represents... |
|
Definition
1% recombination or crossing over event |
|
|
Term
how to calculate recombination frequency |
|
Definition
Recombination frequency = (total number of recombinants)/(total number of individuals) |
|
|
Term
map unit is also called... |

Term
how double recombinants are counted to estimate distance between A and C |
|
Definition
To estimate the distance between A and C, double recombinants are counted twice |
|
|
Term
how to calculate expected number of double crossover |
|
Definition
expected double crossing over = P(co A-B) x P(co B-C)
then you multiply by population size to get the expected number |
|
|
Term
when the observed number of double crossover is lower than the expected, this indicates... |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
crossing over in one region reducing the probability of crossing over in the adjacent region |
|
|
Term
coefficient of coincidence |
|
Definition
the ratio of the observed number of double crossovers to the expected number of double crossovers |
|
|
Term
how to calculate coefficient of coincidence |
|
Definition
coefficient of coincidence = (observed double crossovers)/(expected double crossovers)
express it as a percent |
|
|
Term
how to calculate interference |
|
Definition
Interference = 1 – Coefficient of coincidence
express it as a percent |
