Transcribed Image Text:1. In maize, the following genes are linked on chromosome 3:
va - variable sterile
v - virescent
gl - glossy leaves
Two homozygous plants were crossed and produced an all normal F1. When the F1 was test-crossed, progeny
phenotypes appeared as follows:
235 virescent
7.glossy
60 wild
40 variable sterile
270 variable sterile, glossy
62 variable sterile, virescent, glossy
Diagram the chromosome map for the 3 loci
Example: a--1.00 cM--b--2.00 CM--c--3.00 CM
Significant # of decimal places for answer: 2
Answer:
48 virescent, glossy
4 variable sterile, virescent
2. Two hypothetical autosomal human genes are 10 cM apart. These dominant alleles are completely penetrant and
respectively cause crossed eyes (e+) and small thumbs (th+). A cross-eyed, small thumbed woman marries a normal
man and they have 4 children. Two of the children are cross-eyed and two of the children have small thumbs. The
woman is pregnant with a 5th What is the probability that this child will be cross-eyed and have small thumbs?
Express answer in percentage form, 2 decimal places only.

4. A farmer who wants to get into the milk business has bought a small beginning herd of 12 heterozygous cows all of
which have 2 dominant cis-linked genes: production of high quantities of milk (+) and high fertility (+). The recessive
alleles are (m) and (f) respectively. The two genes are 25 cM apart on chromosome 3. Two of the farmer's nearby
neighbors own bulls that are also heterozygous for these traits. The first neighbor's bull has the same alleles linked as
his cows, but the second neighbor's bull has one dominant and one recessive allele from each trait on each homolog.
What are the respective genotypes of the first and second neighbor's bulls?
Example: ++/a b and ++/ b c
Answer:
5. Two of the pairs of genes in corn are: Pl purple plant (Pl) vs. green plant (pl) and tall (Py) plant vs. dwarf (py) plants.
These genes are 20 cM apart on chromosome 6. Two cis-heterozygous plants were crossed. What is the gamete
genotype ratio produced by each parent?
Example: 0.1 ab/ab; 0.2 ab/ab; 0.3 ab/ab; 0.4 ab/ab
