1 Chapter 5: Genetic linkage and chromosome mapping. Overview Introduction Linkage and recombination of genes in a chromosome Principles of genetic mapping Building linkage maps Chromosome and chromatid interference Genetic mapping in human and animal Mapping by tetrad analysis Special features of recombination Overview Introduction Linkage and recombination of genes in a chromosome Principles of genetic mapping Building linkage maps Chromosome and chromatid interference Genetic mapping in human and animal Mapping by tetrad analysis Special features of recombination Introduction Genes located on the same chromosome might be expected to be in COMPLETE linkage. As a result of crossing-over over, however, recombinant progeny with genotypes not observed in the parents are observed.

2 Introduction The probability of recombination increases with genetic distance. Thus recombination rate can be used as a unit of distance between loci and used to build maps. Linkage analysis is very important in genetics. It is often the first step towards isolating genes underlying defined phenotypes including inherited diseases.
