How to build a genetic map? What is necessary? How does it relate to the physical distance? i. If I have 3 genes and want to learn their distance in cM, how many types of crosses do I need? Why?
Genes Q, R, and S are on the same chromosome. The crossoverfrequency between S and Q is 5%, the crossover frequency betweenQ and R is 30%, and the crossover frequency between R and S is35%. Use this information to create a linkage map for thechromosome
