Which of the following mechanisms could result in linkage disequilibrium between two loci FOUND ON DIFFERENT CHROMOSOMES rarity of meiotic crossovers between tightly linked genes random mating selection for or against specific combinations of alleles at the two loci genetic drift populations subdivision with reduced levels of interbreeding between sub populations
Genetic Variation
Genetic variation refers to the variation in the genome sequences between individual organisms of a species. Individual differences or population differences can both be referred to as genetic variations. It is primarily caused by mutation, but other factors such as genetic drift and sexual reproduction also play a major role.
Quantitative Genetics
Quantitative genetics is the part of genetics that deals with the continuous trait, where the expression of various genes influences the phenotypes. Thus genes are expressed together to produce a trait with continuous variability. This is unlike the classical traits or qualitative traits, where each trait is controlled by the expression of a single or very few genes to produce a discontinuous variation.
