A wild-type chromosome can be represented as ABC[*]DEFGH, and from this a chromosomal aberration arises that can be represented
ABC[*]DEgfH, where [*] represents the centromere. If there is a crossover between a mutant chromosome and a normal chromosome between G and F, what are the resulting recombinant chromosomes?
The resulting recombinant chromosomes will have the following chromosomes:
A. ABC[*]DEGGH
B. ABC[*]DEFFH
Explanation:
In consequence, the resulting recombinant chromosomes will have one duplication for either the G gene or the F gene, and one deletion for the other. Duplications are genomic rearrangements produced by unequal recombination events
