The misuse of the three-point cross for estimating chiasma interference.

Abstract excerpt

The building of genetic maps in diploid organisms by crosses between different genotypes and estimation of recombination frequencies from the obtained segregation data has been successfully used since a very young step in the birth of genetics. The three-point cross methodology has facilitated this task and has demonstrated at the same time that genetic distances are not additive, as some recombinant products are...
