A viable t-haplotype, t38, has been shown to distort linkage relations in the Ttf region of mouse chromosome 17. Separate experiments were done with two different interstitial markers, Low and qk, which map respectively about 5 and 4 centimorgans (cM) from the locus of T in female T + tf/ + (Low or qk)+ heterozygotes. In females that carried t38, however (i.e. t38+ + / + Low tf or t38+ + / + qk tf), there was virtually no recombination between t38 and either interstitial marker, although the t38tf distance was normal. These observations suggest that t38 suppresses recombination in the lefthand part of that region and strongly enhances it further to the right.
