A female animal with genotype AB/ab is testcrossed. The two genes are linked. The progeny includes 442 AB/ab, 458 ab/ab , 46 Ab/ab and 54 aB/ab. Calculate the distance between the two genes.
Two genes ‘d’ and ‘t’ are assumed to show linkage as well as produce recombinants upto 30%. If dd/ dd individual is crossed with one which is tt/tt. What genotype will produce in first filial generation? Also give the possible meiotic products produced by first generation. If a test cross is performed what phenotypes and genotypes will produced in progeny.
The image shows a pair of homologous chromosomes from a single parent before gamete production. M1 and M2 are maternal chromosomes, while P1 and P2 are paternal chromosomes. Two traits are shown: D represents seed color (D – green, d – yellow), while F represents flower color (F – purple, f – white). These two traits follow the patterns of basic Mendelian genetics. During crossing-over between the M2 F allele and the P1 f allele, a mutation occurred and the portion of P1 did not reattach to the chromosome. Which of the following explains what would happen to the proportion of white flowers in a population resulting from this mutation? A - There would be an increase in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele is distributed to more gametes. B - There would be a decrease in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele is not distributed to as many gametes. C - There would be an increase in the proportion of white flowers because the f allele would not be masked by the…

Consider the following dihybrid testcross: B/b • E/e × b/b • e/e For the progeny from this testcross, determine the relative proportions (from 0% to 100%) of each genotype if the two genes: a) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) with no crossing over: Be/be: be/be: BE/be: bE/be: b) assort independently. B/b; E/e: B/b; e/e: b/b; E/e: b/b; e/e: c) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) and 20 map units apart. Be/be: be/be: BE/be: bE/be:

In Drosophila, a cross was made between females expressing thethree X-linked recessive traits, scute bristles (sc), sable body (s),and vermilion eyes (v), and wild-type males. All females were wildtype in the F1, while all males expressed all three mutant traits.The cross was carried to the F2 generation and 1000 offspringwere counted, with the results shown in the following table. Nodetermination of sex was made in the F2 data. Question:Calculate the coefficient of coincidence; does this represent positive or negative interference?
