The recombination frequency between the genes a & c 5&, b & c is 15%, b & d is 9%, a & b is 20%, c & d is 25% and a & d is 29%. What will be the sequence of these genes on a linear chromosome?
- Aa, d, b, c
- Bd, b, a, c
- Ca, b, c, d
- Da, c, b, d

Correct answer: D
1% recombination frequency = 1 centi Morgan
To place the genes on a linear chromosome, decreasing order of recombination frequency will be considered.
