By calculating the recombination frequency we can estimate the distance between 2 genes located in the same chromosome Two genes located in the same chromosome will ALWAYS be transmitted together in meiosis. In fruit flies, the gene 1. True coding for eye color is located 19.6 cM from the 2. False gene coding for type of bristles. Therefore we can expect to have \( 19.6 \% \) of recombinant chromosomes for these genes. The shorter the distance between a pair of genes, the higher the probability that crossing over will take
