CentiMorgan (cM) Defined

The average length of DNA estimated from exchange of homologous genetic material, between chromosomes during meiosis, averaging 1 cross-over per 100 gametes. A unit of measure of recombination frequency. One centimorgan is equal to a 1% chance that a marker at one genetic locus will be separated from a marker at a second locus due to crossing-over in a single generation. In human beings, 1 centimorgan is equivalent, on average, to 1 million base pairs. See Gamete and Cross-Over.
