In this article we will discuss about the introduction and significance of chromosome mapping. The diagrammatic representation of the relative distance between the linked genes of a chromosome is called linkage or genetic map. Since a linkage map is the outcome of crossing over studies, it is also called crossover map. The method of constructing […]

In this article we will discuss about the meaning and characteristics of sex linked inheritance. Meaning of Sex Linked Inheritance: Besides carrying genes for determining sex the sex chromosomes also bear genes for other characters. These genes are carried from generation to generation and are called sex linked genes and the characters controlled by these […]
Deviations from Mendelian Ratio (With Diagram) | Genetics | Biotechnology
Article shared by : 
A number of deviations were identified in the post-Mendelian era. The normal monohybrid ratio of 3:1 will occur only when the allele have a relationship of dominance and recesiveness between each other. In the absence of such a relationship, the 3:1 becomes modified variously. Let us understand this with the following examples: 1. Incomplete or […]
