Centimorgan (cM): A unit of measure of genetic recombination frequency. One cM is equal to a 1% chance that a marker at one genetic locus will be separated from a marker at another locus due to crossing over in a single generation. In humans, 1 cM is equivalent, on average, to 1 million base pairs. The centimorgan is named after the pioneering (and Nobel Prize winning) geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan.
A microsiemens (Î¼S) is a decimal fraction of the SI unit of electrical conductance and admittance siemens and is equal to 10â»â¶ siemens. Conductance and admittance are the reciprocals of resistance and impedance respectively, hence one siemens is equal to the reciprocal of one ohm. micromho (Î¼â§) is a decimal fraction of the mho, which is the alternative name of the SI unit of electric conductance and admittance siemens, the reciprocal of one ohm. Mho is derived from spelling ohm backwards and is written with an upside-down capital Greek letter Omega â§. 1 Î¼â§ = 10â»â¶ â§.
