  "term": "Gene map",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A diagram showing the relative positions of genes on a chromosome, or the physical distance between genetic markers. It is constructed by analyzing recombination frequencies or by direct physical mapping techniques. Genetic maps are measured in centimorgans (cM), while physical maps are measured in base pairs (bp).",
