A cross between two linked genes was done in coupling configuration and in repulsion. In coupling, the recombination frequency is greater than 1/16 and in repulsion, the recombination frequency is less than 1/16

If the cross between two linked genes is in coupling, then the recombination frequency is greater than 1/16 having the genotype aabb and phenotype ab.

If the cross between two linked genes is in repulsion, then the recombination frequency is less than 1/16 having the genotype aabb and phenotype ab.

Coupling is the gamete entered having genes from identical parents having same inheritance.

Repulsion is the gamete entered from different parents having separate inheritance.

Genes in coupling configuration on a homologous chromosome have two wild alleles and two mutant alleles on the other homologous chromosome.

Genes in repulsion configuration have a wild allele on one gene and the second gene on other homologous chromosome having a mutant allele.
