What is a lod score and how is it calculated?

Expert Solution

Step 1

The genes that are present in close proximity tend to transmit together into the gametes. If the genes are separated by a distance of 50 centimorgan (cM) or more, they are said to assorting independently. The genes situated at a distance less than 50 cM apart are said to be linked. However, these linked genes can also transmit independently if recombination happens between them.
