We start with a parent AaBbCc and perform a testcross with a homozygous recessive (aabbcc), resulting in the following data:

ABC/abc, abc/abc= 6972 (Parental)
abC/abc, ABc/abc= 3454 (B-C recombinants)
Abc/abc, aBc/abc= 60 (A-B recombinants)
aBc/abc, AbC/abc = 9 (double recombinants)

I understand the actual mathematics of determining the recombination frequencies, but I don't understand why abC/abc, ABc/abc is considered a B-C recombinant and Abc/abc, aBc/abc is an A-C recombinant. What am I missing here?
