Abstract
Linkage studies on rabbits involving simultaneously the 3 genes C, Y and B, show that: all 3 genes are borne in the same chromosome; the order of the genes is CYB; the crossover percentage between C and Y is 14.4 [plus or minus] 1.0%, between Y and B 26.8 [plus or minus] 1.4%, and between C and B (in complete agreement with earlier observations) 35.8 [plus or minus] 0.8%. Double crossing-over occurs in less than the frequency expected on the theory of probability, hence "interference" is demonstrated for a mammalian chromosome.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
