A critical view to explanations for the maximal value of 50 % of genetic recombination Críticas a las explicaciones del máximo de 50 % de recombinación genética

The maximal value of 50 % of genetic recombination (RF = recombination fraction) between two linked gene loci has been explained by two models: (i) the restriction of crossovers to only two of the four chromatids of a tetrad (tetrad model); (ii) the limit of the occurrence of an odd number of crosso...
