To see how close genes are on chromosomes. When crossing over occurs you can tell haw close genes are by the traits expressed independently. I f not expressed independently then these genes are probably linked by being close together on the chromosome and traveling as a pair during crossing over. A student of Thomas Hunt Morgan come up with the mathematical analysis of this phenomenom.

Linkage map: A map of the genes on a chromosome based on linkage analysis. A linkage map does not show the physical distances between genes but rather their relative positions, as determined by how often two gene loci are inherited together.

How can one create a linkage map for genetic analysis?

To create a linkage map for genetic analysis, one must first identify genetic markers that are inherited along with the gene of interest. These markers are then used to track the inheritance patterns of the gene through generations. By analyzing the frequency of recombination events between the gene and the markers, the relative positions of the gene and markers on a chromosome can be determined, creating a linkage map.


Why is 50 recombination the maximum value in genetic linkage analysis?

In genetic linkage analysis, 50 recombination is the maximum value because it indicates that the two genes are located far apart on the same chromosome, making them more likely to be separated during the process of genetic recombination. Beyond 50, the genes are considered unlinked and will assort independently during inheritance.
