Abstract excerpt

Recombination fractions among four chromosome 3 enzyme loci were measured over a 20 generation period in experimental populations of Drosophila melanogaster. The experimental populations were initiated with complete pairwise linkage disequilibria among the marker loci, thereby providing an initial structure favorable to selection for recombination modification. The recombination data show no evidence of...
