Question

While constructing a linkage map, below are the recombination frequencies observed between pairs of genes A, B, C and D. Based on this, what order do the genes have on a chromosome? Genes | Recombination Frequency ---|--- A-B | 25% B-C | 10% C-A | 35% D-C | 30% C, B, D, A A, B, C, D D, A, B, C D, C, B, A

          While constructing a linkage map, below are the recombination frequencies observed between pairs of genes A, B, C and D. Based on this, what order do the genes have on a chromosome?
