Telosomic stocks have been extensively used to map genes to chromosome arms and to determine gene-to-centromere genetic distances. It has been suggested that if a chromosome arm is present as a telosome, recombination frequencies will be drastically reduced in the centromeric region. However, previous studies have not considered the bias in recombination estimates due to selection against aneuploid gametes produced by failure of pairing at the first meiotic division. Formulas are derived here for adjusting recombination estimates for this bias. Adjusted recombination frequencies between markers located on both sides of the centomeres are analyzed in three different pairs of wheat (Triticum aestivum) isogenic segregating populations involving bibrachial and telocentric chromosomes. Recombination frequencies estimated from crosses involving telocentric chromosomes were not significantly different from recombination frequencies estimated from isogenic crosses involving bibrachial chromosomes. The implications of the present findings for karyotype evolution, and specifically for Robertsonian fissions and fusions, are discussed.
