Abstract excerpt
The distribution of the recombination fraction between two distal, autosomal loci, plexus and orange, was investigated in reciprocal crosses between the marker stock and each of two wild-type strains, Harwich and Ottawa. The dysgenic cross between Harwich males and marker females exhibited high sterility, low fecundity, and a non-normal distribution of the recombination fraction. Neither the distribution of the...
