A three‑point linkage analysis found a coefficient of coincidence value of 1.0.

What does this value reveal about the number of observed double crossovers in the progeny?

Final answer:

A coefficient of coincidence value of 1.0 obtained from a three-point linkage analysis indicates that there were no observed double crossovers in the progeny.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of coincidence value of 1.0 obtained from a three-point linkage analysis indicates that all observed double crossovers were completely coincident. In other words, there were no observed double crossovers in the progeny. A coefficient of coincidence value of 1.0 means that all expected double crossovers were successfully suppressed and only single crossovers occurred in the progeny.
