Question
Using the frequency of crossing between genes V and W, what can be created, as shown in the picture?Multiple choice question.product rulelinkage mapdihybrid crossmonohybrid cross
Solution
A linkage map can be created using the frequency of crossing over between genes V and W. This map is a graphical representation of the relative distances between genes on a chromosome. The frequency of crossing over is proportional to the distance between the genes: the further apart the genes are, the more likely a crossover event will occur between them. Therefore, by studying the frequency of crossing over, we can estimate the relative positions of genes on a chromosome.
