Adjacent segregation is a concept in genetics that refers to the separation of two alleles that are located next to each other on the same chromosome during meiosis. This type of segregation can occur when homologous chromosomes fail to align properly during meiosis, leading to a loss of genetic diversity. Adjacent segregation can result in the transmission of linked alleles together to the same gamete, which can lead to genetic disorders or diseases.
