| Modern Genetic Analysis Chapter 5. Recombination of Genes Linkage Maps Figure 5-14. The genetic map of the Drosophila genome, showing how each linkage group corresponds to one chromosome pair. Values are given in map units measured from the gene closest to one end. Larger values are calculated as sums of shorter intervals because the recombinant frequency for any two loci cannot exceed 50 percent. (From E. W. Sinnott, L. C. Dunn, and T.
