B. Which phenotypes represent the NCO classes?
C. Which phenotypes represent the DCO classes?
What are the genotypes of the flies in the F1 test cross?
dp + +/+ b pu X dp b pu/dp b pu
O dp + +/+ b pu X dp + +/+ b pu
O ++ +/dp b pu X dp b pu/dp b pu
O +b +/dp + pu X dp b pu/dp b pu

Purple and black, dumpy
Purple, black and dumpy
Which phenotypes represent the NCO classes?
O Dumpy and black, purple

Expert Solution

Step 1
Formulas for three point test cross -
A. Distance between two genes = (#progenies obtained by SCO between those two genes + #progenies obtained by DCO) / total #progenies × 100
B. Expected DCO = product of distances between first two and next two genes
C. Coefficient of coincidence = observed DCO/expected DCO
D. Interference = 1 - coc
E. Determine gene order by comparing DCO and parental progenies
F. Parental progenies = maximum in #
G. DCO progenies = minimum in #
