Document Summary

The genes le and v are 12 cm apart on chromosome 4. Since the genes are 12 cm apart, there is no genetic recombination going on because the alleles are linked. Le = plant height tt or tt x tt (long and short) V = pod shape ss or ss x ss (round and wrinkled) Since f1 is linked will be dd and will be recessive dd. Crossing over occurs during prophase 1 of meiosis 1. Recombination occurs between two molecules of dna that exchange their genetic information with each other. Yes, recombination could be seen in liver tissue: look at slide 5 from 9-10-18. If the recombination frequency is less than 50% we say the two loci are linked. You can tell if the traits are linked by looking at the offspring. Two identical daughter cells with 46 numbers of chromosomes (23) Yes, a parent produced 2 identical daughter cells.
