Answer:

22 map units

Explanation:

Linked genes may be defined as the genes present on the same chromosomes and they are inherited to the next progeny. The linked genes produces the recombinant progeny.

Distance between the linked gene = No. of recombinants / total number × 100.

Here the parental are 198 Tall Yellow, 192 Short Green.

The recombinant progeny are 54 Tall Green, and 56 Short Yellow.

Distance = \frac{54+56}{198+192+54+56}\times100

Distance = \frac{110}{500}\times100

Distance = 22 map units.

So, the distance between the genes are 22 map units.
