Molecular and General Genetics MGG Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Recombinant B factors were recovered from crosses of class Ixclass III B factors. Factors of class III are constituted of two loci, but intrafactor recombination occurs at a low frequency. Bα of class III B factors differs in its properties from Bα of class I, but Bβ is identical with Bβ of class I. The Bα locus has at least two alleles.
