An individual heterozygous for four genes, A/a • B/b •C/c • D/d, is testcrossed with a/a • b/b • c/c • d/d, and 1000progeny are classified by the gametic contribution ofthe heterozygous parent as follows:a • B • C • D 42A • b • c • d 43A • B • C • d 140a • b • c • D 145a • B • c • D 6A • b • C • d 9A • B • c • d 305a • b • C • D 310a. Which genes are linked?b. If two pure-breeding lines had been crossed toproduce the heterozygous individual, what would theirgenotypes have been?c. Draw a linkage map of the linked genes, showing theorder and the distances in map units.d. Calculate an interference value, if appropriate

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
