Linkage and Recombination
... The frequency of intragenic recombination is usually low so it can only be detected by selecting recombinants from large numbers of progeny. Rosy gene is about 0.005 cM long, i.e. recombination between markers at the ends of the gene occurs in about 0.005% or 0.00005 = 5 X 10-5 of all gametes from a ...
