4.Principles of Inheritance and Variation
medium
If gene exchange rate is $30\%$ of the two linked genes, then the distance between these two genes is
A
$30$ unit
B
$15$ unit
C
$60$ unit
D
$45$ unit
Solution
(a) When the linked genes are quite close to each other,
than the percentage of gene exchange rate is low, and on the other hand when genes are some distance apart,
the percentage of crossing over would be high
i.e. rate of gene exchange is directly proportional to the distance between them.’
