Question

A sex-influenced trait is dominant in bulls and causes horns. The same trait is recessive in cows and results in no horns.   Fur color is not sex influenced, with black fur dominant to cream. A true breeding female with horns and black fur was crossed to a cream-colored male without horns. The F1 females were then crossed to hornless cream-colored males. The following results were obtained:

Males:

30 hornless, black

68 hornless, cream-colored

74 horns, black

26 horns, cream-colored

 

Females:

109 hornless, black

91   hornless, cream-colored

0     horns, black

0     horns, cream-colored

 

Construct a chi square analysis to see if the genes are linked.

If the genes are linked, compute the map distance between them.
