7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
KEY CONCEPT
Genes can be mapped to specific locations on
chromosomes.
7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
Gene linkage was explained through fruit flies.
• Morgan found that linked traits are on the same
chromosome.
• Chromosomes, not genes, assort independently during
meiosis.
Wild type
Mutant
7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
• Linked genes are not inherited together every time.
• Chromosomes exchange homologous genes during
meiosis.
7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
Linkage maps estimate distances between genes.
• The closer together two genes are, the more likely they will be
inherited together.
• Cross-over frequencies are related to distances between genes.
– The higher the frequency, the further the genes are apart
• Linkage maps show the relative locations of genes.
7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
• Cross-over frequencies can be converted into map units.
• Ex: A 5% cross-over frequency equals 5 map units.
– gene A and gene B cross over 6.0
percent of the time
– gene B and gene C
cross over 12.5 percent
of the time
– gene A and gene C cross over 18.5 percent of the
time
7.3 Gene Linkage and Mapping
Draw a linkage map based on the following cross over
percentages:
• A – B = 8%
• B – C = 10%
• A – C = 2%

8.0 + 2.0 = 10.0
