Linkage and Recombination
Genes are on chromosomes
Alleles segregate
Alleles for different genes assort independently
Pea plants have 7 pairs of chromosomes. Flies have 4 pairs. Humans have 23 pairs.
Mendel
Morgan and Bridges
Bateson et al.

What is the inheritance pattern for two traits determined by genes on the same chromosome?
“Linked” genes are those that do NOT assort independently.(They reside on the same chromosome.)
We will see that...

PGKThe corollary isn’t always true!Just because genes are on the same chromosome doesn’t necessarily mean they are linked.

As a student in Morgan’s lab, Sturtevant was the first person to correctly interpret linkage; he created the first genetic maps.

The genes are on the same chromosome & the parental alleles (mostly) co-segregate
How do we know the genotypes of the gametes?
Testcross parent’s gametes… only recessive alleles present
So testcross progeny phenotype allows us to deduce the heterozygous parent’s gamete genotype

Sturtevant’s findings—summary
Genes on the same chromosome can show linkage instead of independent assortment
Gametes (mostly) have the same allele combinations as the homologs in the parent
Recombination can give rise to gametes with non-parental (=recombinant) allele combinations
Two parental types are more abundant and occur at roughly equal frequency to one another
Non-parental types are less abundant and occur at roughly equal frequency to each other
![Page 14: Linkage and Recombination](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568134ba550346895d9bdadd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Sturtevant’s interpretation of linkage
-Recombination involves the physical exchange of chromosomal segments between homologs.
-The frequency of recombinant types indicates the distance between linked genes.
What is the evidence in support of these
hypotheses?
![Page 18: Linkage and Recombination](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568134ba550346895d9bdadd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Test of Sturtevant’s hypothesis
Harriet Creighton and Barbara McClintock, maize Curt Stern, Drosophila
The problem: homologous chromosomes look alike… how to tell if they really exchanged segments?
found genetically marked chromosome with structurally (visually) distinct homologues
Prediction: Chromosome from genetically recombinant plants should show structural rearrangement

Mapping genes using recombination
Alfred Sturtevant’s major insight:If crossovers occur at random
Probability of crossover between two genes is proportional to the distance between them
Crossover between A and B much more likely than between B and D
![Page 21: Linkage and Recombination](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568134ba550346895d9bdadd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Point to ponder:If you examined a population of meioses, what is the maximum recombination frequency you could see between two genes?
Genes very close together…
Low probability of crossover between them
…very few recombinants
“tight linkage”
Genes further apart… more recombinants
![Page 28: Linkage and Recombination](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/568134ba550346895d9bdadd/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
* Crossing-over creates new combinations of traits.
* The frequency of recombinant types indicates the distance between linked
genes.
* Two Parental types in ≈ frequencies.Two Recombinant types ≈ frequencies.
* If genes are linked,Parental types > recombinant
types.

In yeast…
Tetrad of spores… can examine products of individual meioses!
Tetrad with only the 2 parental types = “parental ditype” (PD).
Tetrad with only the 2 recomb. types = “non-parental ditype” (NPD).Tetrad with all four combinations = “tetratype” (T).
Looking at whole tetrads (PD/NPD/T) is informative.

Is this really a 1:1:1:1 ratio as we would expect for independent assortment? Is the deviation from independent assortment due to chance?
2 analysis: Test the “null” hypothesis—that the observed deviation from 1:1:1:1 segregation is due to chance variation.
Why test the null hypothesis?It gives a precise expectation (1:1:1:1)
We cannot test directly for linkage, because (assuming they are linked) we do not know the map distance separating these genes.

What does this P value mean?
Can’t Reject
Yes, these numbers could be due to independent assortment!
Degrees of freedom?
Since Sturtevant DID analyze more flies, however, we are certain that vg and sp are linked.

If to the left, fewer recombinants with pr (and b). If to the right,more recombinants with pr (and b).
Where does speck map?
How do we distinguish these possibilities?
