Probability of incorporation of a gene P is 0.2 and the probability of incorporation of another gene is 0.1. The probability of both being incorporated is seen experimentally to be equal to 0.1. What is our inference?
Probability of incorporation of a gene P is 0.2 and the probability of incorporation of another gene is 0.1. The probability of both being incorporated is seen experimentally to be equal to 0.1. What is our inference? Correct Answer The genes are linked
The probability of incorporation of both should be theoretically 0.2X0.1= 0.02. But experimentally it is found to be 0.1 which is the same as that of 2nd gene. Thus these genes are completely linked i.e. whenever b is incorporated a is incorporated as well.
