Linkage
- Genes
- Only part of chromosome
- Crossing over
- If genes are on the same chromosome, they do not necessarily sort independently
- Gametes produced will be AB and ab
- Having Ab is rare and requires a recombination event
Testcross data when genes are linked
- Shuffles genes up
- Even though we have had a recombination event, the parental one has not been
affected- the recombination fraction can never exceed 50%

Document Summary

If genes are on the same chromosome, they do not necessarily sort independently. Gametes produced will be ab and ab. Having ab is rare and requires a recombination event. Even though we have had a recombination event, the parental one has not been affected- the recombination fraction can never exceed 50: lucilia cuprina (australian sheep blowfly) Larvae drill into sheep and eat it alive. Gene causes crooked bristle and white eye are on same chromosome. The parentals are the most common (where we have chromosome from father . Wcr (red eye and straight bristles) and from the mother- white eyes and crooked bristles- wcr) The recombinants are white eyes and straight bristles and red eyes and crooked bristles. Can immediately say 2 genes are linked because they are not segregating in the 1:1:1:1 ratio. The map distance will expand the further away the gene is and will contract when the gene is close.
