a

To calculate recombination events on a per meiosis basis from a per gamete frequency, the crossover frequency is multiplied by 2 and the noncrossover is multiplied by 4, given that crossovers modify 2 of 4 chromatids while noncrossovers modify 1 of 4 chromatids.

b

Confidence interval (CI) calculations here and in the text use the Wilson procedure with continuity correction.

c

Crossover and noncrossover frequency calculations are restricted to those samples used for noncrossover measurements, as shown in Supplementary Figure 1 and Supplementary Table 1, accounting for the small differences from that previously reported23.

d

Noncrossover frequency is derived from the B10.A chromosome only, which represents >95% of events23.

e

The crossover frequency is lower than that previously determined18, largely attributable to results from one of the animals in the current study.

f

Noncrossover frequency is derived from the DBA/2J chromosome only, which represents >80% of events as in Supplementary Fig. 2.
