Definition
| The position of a gene on a genetic map; the specific place on a chromosome where a gene is located |
|
|
Term

Definition
| Genes on a chromosome are inherited together with no exchange or crossing over |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A process by which parents with different alleles give rise to progeny with genotypes that differ from either parent |
