Table-I. Frequency distribution of observed recombination events for maternally derived NDJ groups among different maternal age groups.

Frequency distribution of recombination in meioses among the maternal age groups of both MI and MII cases.

Types of NDJ Maternal age group Sample Size Frequency of observed number of recombination events
0 1 ≥ 2
MI Young ( ≤28yrs ) 60 0.8 0.18 0.02
Middle (29–34yrs) 26 0.88 0.08 0.04
Old ( ≥35 ) 21 0.67 0.24 0.09
MII Young ( ≤28yrs ) 11 - 0.73 0.27
Middle (29–34yrs) 10 - 0.8 0.2
Old ( ≥35 ) 10 - 0.9 0.1
