To demonstrate linkage of two markers A and B by transformation,one needs to demonstrate that the frequency of transformation by:
A)A and B is greater than the product of their individual transformation frequencies.
B)A and B is greater than the sum of their individual transformation frequencies.
C)A and B is less than the product of their individual transformation frequencies.
D)A and B is less than the sum of their individual transformation frequencies.
E)A is equal to the frequency of transformation by B.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When two markers A and B show a transformation frequency together that is greater than the product of their individual transformation frequencies, it indicates that they are linked, as this suggests they are often transferred together due to physical proximity on the chromosome.
