Test for Free versus Linked Recombination of Ait, Apv, Pit, and Ppv within the 2(S1 × A17) Family by Comparison of the Observed and Expected (in Parenthesis) Segregation Ratios for the Six Combinations of Gene Pairs (for Genetic Constitution of the Parents, See Table 3 or Figure 2)

a

d, dominant; r, recessive alleles.

b

ns, *, and ***, not significant, P < 0.05, and P < 0.001.

c

The significant deviation of the observed from the expected segregation 2 (0) may be caused by chromatid segregation of the postulated 3Ppv1ppv genetic constitution; excluding these cases, the segregation does not differ significantly.
