All three genes are linked, but need to do more crosses and data to dete the gene order. DAII three genes are linked with the flower color gene (F) in the middle. All three genes are linked with the seed weight gene (S) in the middle. All three genes are linked with the leaf size gene (L) in the middle.

### Quiz Question on Gene Linkage and Gene Order

Please select the correct statement regarding the linkage and order of the genes based on gene linkage analysis:

1. ○ All three genes are linked, but need to do more crosses and data to determine the gene order.
2. ○ All three genes are linked with the flower color gene (F) in the middle.
3. ○ All three genes are linked with the seed weight gene (S) in the middle.
4. ○ All three genes are linked with the leaf size gene (L) in the middle.

**Question 6**

A diploid plant has red flowers, heavy seeds, and large leaves. The plant is heterozygous for the following three genes:
- flower color (gene “F”),
- seed weight (gene “S”),
- and leaf size (gene “L”).

This plant is testcrossed to a plant, which has white flowers, light seeds, and small leaves. The progeny of the testcross is as follows:

| Number | Genotype | Phenotype                |
|--------|----------|--------------------------|
| 346    | FSL / fsl | Red, heavy, large        |
| 348    | fsl / fsl | White, light, small      |
| 100    | FSl / fsl | Red, heavy, small        |
| 100    | fsL / fsl | White, light, large      |
| 50     | FsL / fsl | Red, light, large        |
| 50     | fSl / fsl | White, heavy, small      |
| 4      | fSL / fsl | White, heavy, large      |
| 2      | FsL / fsl | Red, light, small        |

**Based on these results, which of the following statements is correct?**

[ ] All the crossover classes are included; you need to analyze crosses and data to determine the gene order.
[ ] There are some gene conversion events present.
[ ] We can determine the gene order based on the crossover frequencies observed.
[ ] The genotype FSL/fsl gives the same phenotype as FSL/FSL.
