Abstract

The present status of research on genetic linkage is reviewed. Where possible, the data are statistically combined to give consolidated estimates of the recombination value. Ten groups of linked genes have been determined. The first assignments of linkage groups to specific chromosomes have been facilitated by inter-species cell hybridisation.
