Document Summary

Pairs of genes didn"t segregate randomly (mendel"s first principle) Morgan: genes are coupled/linked if present on the same chromosome (inherited together, close linkage = close together. Y is body color and se is the eye color. ; indicates the two alleles are on different chromosomes (order) of the genes shows the order of the genes found on the chromosome. Linked genes are inherited together most of the time but not always. Recombination- the sorting of alleles into new combinations (resulting progeny allel combinations are different from the parent combinations) Recombination frequency- the percentage of recombinant progeny: rf = (number of recombinant progeny / total number of progeny) * 100% Unlinked genes (independent assortment)- parental and recombinant allele combinations are generated at equal frequency. Complete linkage- only parental allele combinations are possible due to tight physical linkage. Linked genes- parental allele combinations are usually more frequency than recombinant combinations.
