A MODEL FOR ADDITIVE CROSS-OVER UNITS IN GENETIC LINKAGE ANALYSIS,

Abstract

If the number of cross-overs occurring between two loci is a Poisson random variable with mean gamma rays then the probability of an odd number of cross-overs is p = (1-e to the minus 2 gamma power)/2. Cross-over units measured on the scale of gamma rays = - (log(1-2p))/2 rather than on the p-scale would therefore be additive. (Author)
