Biology & Biotechnology | A measure of distance between two loci on genetic maps that is based on the average number of crossing-over events that take place in the interval between those two loci during meiosis. A map interval that is one crossing-over unit in length (a centimorgan) describes an interval between two loci such that one in every hundred gametes recovered from meiosis is recombinant in that interval, i. e. , the allele at the first locus is maternal in origin, while the allele at the other locus in that same gamete is paternal in origin.
