*Based on a portion of the thesis submitted to the Ohio State University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Ph.D. degree.
Equations for calculating linkage of a gametophyte factor (Ga) having incomplete penetrance and linked with a sporophyte locus (a) are given and their application shown. Tables containing linkage for different values of recovery of a a and different degrees of selection (s) for ga are presented.
