We have constructed a primary genetic linkage map from DNA markers that define 25 loci on chromosome 7. The markers form a continuous linkage group of 141 cM in males and 340 cM in females; female genetic distances were on average more than twofold higher than those in males throughout the chromosome. The average heterozygosity of the loci was 45%. A subset of the markers can be used for efficient application of this map to studies of human genetic disease.

D011110 Polymorphism, Genetic The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D003434 Crossing Over, Genetic The reciprocal exchange of segments at corresponding positions along pairs of homologous CHROMOSOMES by symmetrical breakage and crosswise rejoining forming cross-over sites (HOLLIDAY JUNCTIONS) that are resolved during CHROMOSOME SEGREGATION. Crossing-over typically occurs during MEIOSIS but it may also occur in the absence of meiosis, for example, with bacterial chromosomes, organelle chromosomes, or somatic cell nuclear chromosomes.
