Double crossovers can involve two, three or four strands at a time. What will be the resultant percentage of recombined genes to normal genes in between which recombination occurred, taking all three types in consideration?
A. 0%
B. 50%
C. 70%
D. 90%
I got this question at a job interview.
I need to ask this question from Linkage and Crossing Over topic in portion Genetic Recombination of Cytogenetics
Right choice is B. 50%
Explanation: Taking all types of a double cross over in consideration only 50% of the resultant will show recombination between the genes which are located on two sides of these recombination events.
