Paracentric inversions are genome features that effectively prevent recombination. Loci A and B are 5x106 base pairs apart but are part of the same inversion (i.e. they do not recombine). Locus C lies outside the inversion and is 6x106 base pairs from A and 1x106 base pairs from B. Assume that in the human genome 1x106 base pairs correspond approximately to 1 m.u. when loci can freely recombine. "Draw" a physical and a linkage map for the 3 loci listing map distances in base pairs and m.u. respectively. Provide both maps in the following format (distances are not correct and are just given as an example) :

Physical: A>>10bp>>B>>10bp>>C

Genetics: A>>5m.u.>>B>>5m.u.>>C

    (9 points) You are interested in studying recombination frequencies in wasps. You identify a queen that is heterozygous at three different loci on chromosome 5: G, H, and R. As queen wasps can produce haploid male offspring without fertilizing their eggs, you decide to look only at the genotypes of her male offspring in your analysis. Below is a list of the genotypes of her male offspring, and the number of individuals that fall into each genotypic class. 92 168...
