illustrates the order of genes/marker loci on a chromosome and their relative distances in terms of recombination frequency. Marker loci placed close to each other have a lower recombination frequency than markers placed apart from each other. Molecular markers can be used to determine the genetic distance between each other and are measured in terms of a genetic map unit or centimorgan. (Varshney 2009)
