Question

In Drosophila, a female fly is heterozygous for three mutations, Bar
eyes (B), miniature wings (m), and ebony body (e). Note that Bar is
a dominant mutation. The fly is crossed to a male with normal eyes,
miniature wings, and ebony body. The results of the cross are as
follows.
111 miniature
29 wild type
117 Bar
26 Bar, mimatue
101 Bar, ebony
31 Bar, miniature, ebony
35 ebony
115 miniature, ebony
Interpret the results of this cross. If you conclude that linkage is
involved between any of the genes, determine that map distance(s
between them.
