Due to their near proximity on a chromosome, linked genes are more likely to be inherited jointly (left). Separate chromosomes do not ever have connected genes (center).
Linked genes tend to be inherited jointly because of their close proximity on the same chromosome.
50% of the time, unlinked genes—whether on the same or different chromosomes—are transmitted separately. Less than 50% of the time, genes that are genetically connected are inherited separately. A recombination event between the connected genes is less likely to occur the closer they are to one another.
Due to genetic linkage, two genes are inherited simultaneously. Genetic linkage is crucial because it minimizes the quantity or extent of variation and aids in identifying the underlying genetic defect that caused the illness phenotype, whether it be in a single gene or a group of genes.
