Genetic Recombination Chapter 10 Sexual Reproduction and Genetics Genetic Recombination The new combination of genes produced by crossing over and independent assortment Possible combinations of genes = 2n n is the haploid chromosome number
10.3 Gene Linkage and Polyploidy Chapter 10 Sexual Reproduction and Genetics 10.3 Gene Linkage and Polyploidy Gene Linkage Exception to Mendel’s law of independent assortment because linked genes usually do not segregate independently. Genes that are close on same chromosome, Travel together during meiosis
If genes are linked what is a way they could separate during meiosis?
