By doing this type of analysis with more and more genes (e.g., adding in genes D, E, and F and figuring out their relationships to A, B, and C) we can build up linkage maps of entire chromosomes. In linkage maps, you may see distances expressed as centimorgans or map units rather than recombination frequencies.
The recombination frequency is therefore a measure of the distance between two genes. If you work out the recombination frequencies for different pairs of genes, you can construct a map of their relative positions on the chromosome (Figure 5.17).
A genetic map shows the map distance, in cM, that separates any two loci, and the position of these loci relative to all other mapped loci. The genetic map distance is roughly proportional to the physical distance, i.e., the amount of DNA between two loci.

31 mar 2019 · Map distance: Map distance is the distance between genes . To determine the distance between the genes for vestigial wing and black body, we must estimate the average number of crossovers in the gametes of the doubly heterozygous F1 females (vg+vg, b+b)
Physical Maps. A physical map provides detail of the actual physical distance between genetic markers, as well as the number of nucleotides. There are three methods scientists use to create a physical map: cytogenetic mapping, radiation hybrid mapping, and sequence mapping.
Mating experiments can be used to map the relative distance between linked genes. Learning Objectives. To understand why Mendel’s laws of inheritance do not apply to linked genes. To understand the linear arrangement of genes along a chromosome. To understand how meiosis and crossing over results in recombinant gametes.
