What is the relationship between the frequency of recombinant gametes and the distance between two genes on the same chromosome?

The frequency of recombinant gametes is directly related to the distance between two genes on the same chromosome. The farther apart the genes are, the higher the frequency of recombinant gametes. This is because crossing over events during meiOSis are more likely to occur between genes that are further apart, leading to a greater chance of genetic recombination.
