Lod (logarithm of odds) scores
To determine the probability that genes are actually linked, geneticists often calculate lod (logarithm of odds) scores.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

To obtain a lod score, we calculate 
the probability of obtaining the observed results under the assumption that the genes are linked with a specified degree of recombination
the probability of obtaining the observed results under the assumption of independent assortment.

Suppose recombination frequency is 0.1, and that the probability of obtaining the same observations under the assumption of independent assortment is 0.0001.
