Question

A kidney-bean shaped eye is produced by a recessive gene, k, on the third chromosome of Drosophila. Orange eye color, called cardinal, is produced by the recessive gene cd on the same chromosome. A third recessive gene on chromosome three, e, produces ebony body color. Trihybrid females are testcrossed to produce 4000 progeny, as follows:

1761    kidney, cardinal

1773    ebony

128      cardinal

97        kidney

89        ebony, cardinal

6          kidney, ebony,cardinal

8          wild type

138      kidney, ebony

What is the distance between genes e and k?

What is the distance between genes cd and e?
