Ultimate Trivia Quiz on Linkage Groups

Let’s start the quiz

Genes in a particular group have their alleles in their corresponding homologous chromosomes. Appear of homologous chromosomes form a single linkage group. Therefore, the number of linkage groups present in an individual always corresponds with the number of chromosomes in its genome. It is known as the principle of limitation of the linkage group. So take this quiz and increase your knowledge about linkage groups.
