Genetic Recombination and Gene Mapping

[@Tomozaurus]

I swear these videos are 100% times better than the actual lectures from my university-run units. They should just show these.

[@mack_raymond]

I have done the majority of my learning on KZbin, for free and in half the time as in lecture. Yet I am paying enormous amounts of money for tuition. This is sad. The only redeeming quality of the school system that I can find is that it pressures me into learning the material for exams. If I didn't have that pressure, perhaps I wouldn't be bothered to learn the material.

"and i hope that was helpful" yes, yes it was! way more than the 2 hours i had in class today! thanks!! you're amazing!

This video helped me a lot. I just have to consider some issues about the distance of B-A and A-D. Thinking of it mathematically the distance between B-D from the given data is equal to 55 map units which on that note it should be independently assorted. It must have been 10 map units between A-D which would make total sense and the reordering of the gene map. I have to thank you Bozeman for letting us think critically and curiously

[@joshuawhittaker1233]

Your thinking is great, but in reality, his example is OK. It is possible (maybe even likely) there is a mistake and as a teacher he meant to give a simple example that added up nicely, but I think the numbers reveal the reality of genetic mapping. At 8:57 he says "relative map distance", because recombination frequencies accurately tell the ORDER of genes on a chromosome relative to one another, but do not always accurately tell the exact DISTANCE. In other words, sometimes the math doesn't add up. Reasons for numbers that don't add up are several. Double crossovers can result in incorrect distance calculations. Also, not all areas of the chromosome cross-over equally. Some areas are hotspots that have more recombination, and some areas like the centromeres have almost none. The farther apart genes are, the more opportunities there are for inaccuracy in distance calculations based on recombination frequency. Side note: Another obvious reason the numbers don't always add up, though not related to this exact problem, is that some human chromosomes are 200+ map units. This method can only calculate up to 50 map units because recombination frequency can't go over 50%. Genes that are over 50 map units apart on a chromosome will all map as 50% RF. In such a case, we would need more genes to compare that are closer together, or modern gene sequencing techniques. Also see Khan academy (bottom section of article): www.khanacademy.org/science/biology/classical-genetics/chromosomal-basis-of-genetics/a/linkage-mapping

[@Xelth4]

@@joshuawhittaker1233 why cant the distance of the chromosome be higher than 50 map units and the recombination frequency between 2 genes must ne lower than 50% ? Not even exactly 50? Why if it's exactly 50, it means that the genes are in different chromosomes?

[@whitakerhoskins]

B to A should be 15 map units

[@A169JB]

+Whitaker Hoskins thanks i did pause and i couldnt figure it out...

[@deltav9]

+Whitaker Hoskins Realistically you are right but the recombinant frequencies come from a sample which means there is a range of error

[@OShawna23]

Whitaker Hoskins why

[@thea16able]

Thanks I thought I was going crazy

[@sierraslyh6743]

so, when you look at the math behind the gene mapping, one would expect the distance from B-A and A-D to add up to the distance between B-D since A is just a point in between B and D. however, when you look at the numbers 30+25 does not equal 40. hope that helps

[@crosbywhittington4879]

for the last gene mapping part. if B to C is 45%, isn't it impossible for A - B (30%) and A-D (25%) to be bigger than 45%?

[@rev2505]

This less than 10 minute video just helped me understand what my teacher tried to teach me in a 1.5 hour lecture.

[@tomvolpe6562]

Great video! Two comments. 1) 50% recombination doesn't necessarily imply the genes you're mapping are on different chromosomes. The could just be far apart on the same chromosome or have a recombination hot spot between them. 2) When you discuss recombination between the b and vg you have a green box labeled recombination and red boxes above and below labeled no recombination. I know what you mean but students may think that there is no recombination occurring in these regions. It may be but you just can't see it with the alleles you are tracking. Thanks again for all your hard work making these videos. They are extremely helpful.

[@yvonnechiletmarch798]

yes it does, as a chromatic only represent 50%, so if its more than this is means its not in the same chromatid and therefore chromosome after recombination

[@rgudduu]

recombination is always checked pairwise, is it? Say, i want to find that final mapping of 4 genes a,b,c,d. So we do pairwise, taking 2 phenotypes at a time, and carefully choosing the corresponding flies?

[@amandashirley990]

The problem you give at the end does not make sense. If the correct order is BADC, as you state, the distance between B-A that you list as 30 mu, and A-D you have listed as 25 mu combined give a combined distance of 55, which would signify that the genes B & D are probably not listed on the same chromosome, and no where near the listed 40 mu's apart. I think the distance between B-A was supposed to have read as 15, not 30, in which case the problem is correct, and the idea that there are 40 map units between B & D is sound.

[@georgeofhamilton]

Arjune Giri Amanda Shirley Maybe he wanted to give us an example of an anomaly of statistics and make us see that this idea still works.

[@OKELLAK]

+Amanda Shirley Or maybe he just made a mistake. It happens.

[@noirritnibedita7565]

but I got BADC where A should be 10 units distant from D,here it is shown as 25!

[@dma67111]

noirrit nibedita no its 15mu Total 50mu..longest b-c 45mu So b-a + a-d + d-c (5%) = 45mu and on a 50mu chromosome

[@mouzicanat]

You can't combine the percentages. Assume they never relate in any way.

[@faramund9865]

8:59 There's an issue now though because now B and A aren't 30% apart!

Mr Anderson, I am a genetics professor, and you have great videos, I appreciate you and like to provide additional resources like yours for my students to learn genetics! But you've got an error on this one--each chromosome is NOT 50 cM. The percent recombinants are not related to the full length of the chromosome. Some long chromosomes are 200+ cM, and once genes are 50 cM apart, they simply act like they are unlinked.
