TL;DR
A non-parametric approach is proposed, that does not require the definition of a mapping function, computation of coefficients of coincidence, nor knowledge of map length or sex differences in recombination.
Abstract
The problem of obtaining a genetic map of a linkage group from pair-wise recombination data is considered. A non-parametric approach is proposed, that does not require the definition of a mapping function, computation of coefficients of coincidence, nor knowledge of map length or sex differences in recombination. An application to Bridges and Morgan's (1923) data on chromosome 3 of Drosophila melanogaster is presented.

PsychometrikaMultidimensional Scaling by Optimizing Goodness of Fit to a Nonmetric Hypothesis
7,398 Citations1964Joseph B. Kruskal
The fundamental hypothesis is that dissimilarities and distances are monotonically related, and a quantitative, intuitively satisfying measure of goodness of fit is defined to this hypothesis.
Annals of EugenicsTHE ESTIMATION OF MAP DISTANCES FROM RECOMBINATION VALUES
5,966 Citations1943D. D. Kosambi
The genetic map is a tool to quantify the distance between genes on a chromosome, based on the observed frequency of crossovers during cell division, which is used to estimate the total distance between chromosomes.
PsychometrikaNonmetric Multidimensional Scaling: A Numerical Method
4,882 Citations1964Joseph B. Kruskal
The numerical methods required in the approach to multi-dimensional scaling are described and the rationale of this approach has appeared previously.

2,553 Citations1962Roger N. Shepard
The program is proposed as a tool for reductively analyzing several types of psychological data, particularly measures of interstimulus similarity or confusability, by making explicit the multidimensional structure underlying such data.

When in theF1 offspring of a cross between two animal species or races one sex is absent, rare, or sterile, that sex is always the heterozygous sex.
PsychometrikaA General Nonmetric Technique for Finding the Smallest Coordinate Space for a Configuration of Points
1,349 Citations1968Louis Guttman
A general coefficient ofmonotonicityμ is defined, whose maximization is equivalent to optimal satisfaction of the monotonicity condition, and which allows various options both for treatment of ties and for weighting error-of-fit.
PsychometrikaThe Analysis of Proximities: Multidimensional Scaling with an Unknown Distance Function. II
912 Citations1962Roger N. Shepard
The results of two kinds of test applications of a computer program for multidimensional scaling on the basis of essentially nonmetric data are reported to measures of interstimulus similarity and confusability obtained from some actual psychological experiments.

The study of crossing‐over leads to consideration of the physio‐chemical nature and behaviour of the chromosomes, and to conclusions respecting the better‐known phenomena of segregation, pairing, recombination and gene action.

Data on meiosis in the human male are used to estimate a mapping parameter which on average turns out to be intermediate between the Kosambi and Carter-Falconer values, but smaller for acrocentrics.

91 Citations1950Andrew Owen
This chapter highlights the recent mathematical developments and the cytological evidence on which its main ideas are founded, and gives a survey of the development of the theoretical concepts involved in the study of linkage.
Genetics ResearchSex differences in recombination of linked genes in animals
88 Citations1967L. C. Dunn, Dorothea Bennett
In the majority of animal species examined crossing-over occurs in both sexes, but it was of greater interest to find that marked sex-differences occur in the same species (data chiefly from the house mouse) in opposite directions in different chromosomes.

72 Citations1963S. A. Henderson
To explain three and four strand double crossing over, additional sister-strand crossing over must be invoked, which must involve some breakage and reunion and "copyingchoice" can provide no explanation of the phenomenon of interference.
HeredityThe sex chromosome in the house mouse
64 Citations1947Ronald Aylmer Fisher, Mary F. Lyon +1 more
This attempt at a formulation of gametic frequencies for an organism heterozygous at any number of linked loci on the sex chromosome of the house mouse owes much to earlier writers, among whom especially should be mentioned K. Mather 1 and Kosambi 2 (i).

48 Citations1963I. D. Watson, H. G. Callan
It is concluded that to base genetical and evolutionary inferences on information drawn from the meiosis of one sex only is unjustified, and the validity of the claim that chiasma localization has arisen so as to restrict genetic recombination is doubted.

36 Citations1949Andrew Owen
It is shown that with sufficiently intense interference the recombination fraction over a segment is an oscillatory function of the map length of the segment, and that recombinations in excess of 50% are therefore in some cases to be expected.

In the case where non-adjacent regions are codsidered, the gross-coincidence method is more adequate than the usual partial-coinidence method and the effect suddenly disappears.

This indicates that there is little or no chromatid interference in the male mouse, and a new map length and recombination frequency conversion table is given, based an the observed chiasma frequencies.
