Summary
A possible quasi-linkage 4. is reported between linkage groups V and XIII of the house mouse. This places the centromere near_S_ p if it is assumed that quasi-linkage effects are caused by the segregation of unlike centromeres. However, interference is more intense in this region than is expected for a centromeric region. There is some evidence from linkage group V data that interference in the house mouse is more intense than in_Drosophila_ or maize. If this is true, a centromere in the region of_S_ p would not be in disagreement with the interference data.
