In Drosophila, a female with three recessive traits, miniature wings, (m), ebony body (e) and rough eyes (r) were crossed with true-breeding wild-type males. In the F1, all offspring had wild-type phenotypes. F1 offspring were testcrossed to miniature, ebony, rough individuals and 1000 offspring were counted, shown in the table below. Determine the genotypes of the P1 and F1 parents. Determine the sequence of the three genes and the map distance between them. Are there more or fewer double crossovers than expected? Calculate the interference. Phenotype Offspring m e r 310 + + + 284 + e r 150 m + + 156 m + r 45 + e + 32 m e + 8 + + r 15 Total 1000

You are given a Drosophila female that looks wild-type but is heterozygous for mutations intan body (t), miniature wings (m), and white eyes (w). You test cross this female with a tanbodied, miniature winged, and white-eyed homozygous mutant male, and you obtain thefollowing 1400 progeny: Phenotype : number+ + + : 608t m w : 516+ m w : 2t + + : 6+ m + : 39t + w : 46+ + w : 81t m + : 102 Calculate the distance between each pair t-m, m-w, and t-w only using the number ofrecombinants between them (i.e. ignoring the gene in the middle). Draw a linear map with thedistances between genes.

Vestigial wing is a recessive autosomal mutation in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Wild-type flies have red eyes, but another mutation, an X-linked recessive mutation causes white eyes. You cross a parental generation of males with vestigial wings with females that have white eyes. 1) What phenotypic ratio would you expect in the F1 generation from such a cross? What phenotypes do you observe in these flies? (e.g. males with red eyes and wild-type wings). 2) What phenotypic ratio would you expect in the F2 generation? What phenotypes do you observe in these flies?

Consider two maize plants:a. Genotype C/cm ; Ac/Ac+, where cm is an unstableallele caused by a Ds insertionb. Genotype C/cm, where cm is an unstable allele causedby Ac insertionWhat phenotypes would be produced and in whatproportions when (1) each plant is crossed with a basepair-substitution mutant c/c and (2) the plant in part a iscrossed with the plant in part b? Assume that Ac and care unlinked, that the chromosome-breakage frequencyis negligible, and that mutant c /C is Ac+.
I need these two answered
Please explain how I can solve this. Thank you You wanted to draw a linkage map for three genes in the fruit fly (A, B, C) that you suspect are linked. You have done a three-point testcross and found that out of the 1500 progeny in the cross, 612 are a · b · c, 603 are A · B · C, 93 are a · B · C, 85 are A · b · c, 53 are a · b · C, 47 are A · B · c, 5 are A · b · C, and 2 are a · B · c. From this data, you can deduce that the genes are linked and the distance between B and C is:
Please answer all parts along with the reason. I'll definitely give a like. Thank you in advance! 1A) From the cross Ab/aB x ab/ab, what is the recombination frequency if the progeny numbers are 17 AB/ab, 72 Ab/ab, 68 aB/ab, and 21 ab/ab? 1B)In human gene mapping, a LOD score is calculated to see if a gene causing a rare disease is linked to a known SNP. The LOD score is -4. This means that 1C) A three-point testcross is used to determine the order of three linked genes. The following crossover progeny result: single crossovers, double crossovers, and no crossovers. To determine the order, the no-crossover progeny must be compared to what other class of progeny?
A cross is made in tomatoes between a female plant thatis trisomic for chromosome 6 and a normal diploid maleplant that is homozygous for the recessive allele for potato leaf (p/p). A trisomic F1 plant is backcrossed to thepotato-leaved male.a. What is the ratio of normal-leaved plants to potatoleaved plants when you assume that p is located onchromosome 6?b. What is the ratio of normal-leaved to potato-leavedplants when you assume that p is not located onchromosome 6?
Karl and Hally Sax crossed Aegilops cylindrica (2 n = 28), a wild grass found in the Mediterranean region, with Triticum vulgare (2 n = 42), a type of wheat . The resulting F1 plants from this cross had 35 chromosomes. Examination of metaphase I in the F1 plants revealed the presence of 7 pairs of chromosomes (bivalents) and 21 unpaired chromosomes (univalents). a. If the unpaired chromosomes segregate randomly, what possiblechromosome numbers will appear in the gametes of the F1 plants?
