Comparison of the total genetic lengths of four linkage groups during the thelytokous parthenogenesis of the Apis mellifera capsensis pseudo-queens with those of the linkage map
| Linkage group | Total linkage distance in thelytokous parthenogenesis (cM) | Map linkage distance (cM) | Reduction |
|---|---|---|---|
| I | 42.6*** | 715.1 | 16.8 |
| II | 25.8*** | 276.6 | 10.7 |
| III | 42.6*** | 240.2 | 5.6 |
| VIII | 334*** | 223.8 | 6.7 |
↵*** Significantly different from the map linkage distances at the 0.001 level.
