Genes Q, R, and S are on the same chromosome. The crossoverfrequency between S and Q is 5%, the crossover frequency betweenQ and R is 30%, and the crossover frequency between R and S is35%. Use this information to create a linkage map for thechromosome
In Creighton and McClintock’s experiment demonstrating thatcrossing over involves physical exchange between chromosomes, explain the importance of the cytological markers(the translocated segment and the chromosome knob) in theexperimental rationale.
What is the difference between Genetic Distance and Physical Distance? Use pictorial and tabular references to make your answer clear. Kindly also give an example of genetic and physical map like Drosophila, Yeast or Maize of any chromosome.
