The correct answer is:
11 map units
The following steps can be used to calculate the recombination frequency is-
map units where RF is recombinant frequency, NR- number of recombinants, TP- total number of progeny. The total number of recombinants, in this case, is and the total number of progeny is . So the recombination frequency is map units.
