When Genes Don`t Work
... For example, say there is a gene that has the role of preventing tumors. It is an imprinted gene, meaning that one copy is active and the other silent. If the active copy becomes disabled, then neither copy does its duty. The body is then more vulnerable to tumors. Scientists believe this might expl ...

Gene Linkage and Crossing Over
... Mapping Chromosomes • The closer genes are together on a chromosome the fewer the crossovers that occur. • Genes farther apart (more map units apart) affected by more crossovers (higher crossover frequency) • For eg. Crossover value of – 1% = 1 map unit apart - genes are close together; – 12% = 1 ...
