Recombination Frequency Q3A

1. Sex
Drosophilla melanogaster
in which crossing over is
completely supressed in
males

5. Nutrition
Meiotic recombination
frequencies are affected
2. Maternal Age by nutritional states
As womans age increases, in Saccharomyces cerevisi
crossing over decreases. ae. When calcium is high,
crossing over decreases.

3. Temperature
The temperature of the
environment of the barley
ranges from 12-24Co thus
the recombination
frequency is greatest in the
24Co.
6. Chemical effects
Mice or rats are laboratory
animals that are used to
test the chemical effects,
to support more effective
chemical testing for the
protection of wildlife
and/or humans. Crossing
over increased upon
injection of antibiotics.

4. Cytoplasmic effect
The drosophila females
selected for the
recombination frequency
pass such trait through their
daughters, indicating the
crossover factors are 7. Radiation

8. Genotype
Members of a homologous
pair carry the same set of
genes, which occur in
identical positions along
the chromosome, but
alleles may be different.
Like one chromosome

and one for brown eyes.
