- In fruit flies, the following X-linked traits are found: white eyes are recessive to red eyes, ebony body is recessive to gray body, and short wings is recessive to long wings. A cross was made between wild-type males with red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies and females with white eyes, short wings, and ebony bodies. Female heterozygote resulting from this cross, which had red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies, were then crossed with males with white eyes, short wings, and ebony bodies. The F2 generation data is obtained below: 1299 white eyes, short wings, ebony bodies 1367 red eyes, long wings, gray bodies 99 white eyes, short wings, gray body 89 red eyes, long wings, ebony bodies 49 white eyes, long wings, ebony bodies 49 red eyes, short wings, gray bodies 1 red eyes, short wings, ebony bodies 1 white eyes, long wings, gray bodies A) Calculate the map distance separating the three genes B) Which gene is in the middle?In dogs, black coat color (B) is dominant to yellow coat color (b), and straight fur (C) is dominant to curly fur (c). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex-linked. In a cross between two BbCc parents, given that an offspring has black coat color and straight fur, what's the probability that it is heterozygous for both genes? Give 2 digits past the decimals.Part 2 Spotty and Cutie have puppies and 50% of the puppies are unaffected for both traits (not blind and not BHFD).

- In silkmoths (Bombyx mori), red eyes (re) and white-banded wings (wb) are encoded by two mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild-type traits (re+ and wb+); these two genes are on the same chromosome. A moth homozygous for red eyes and white-banded wings is crossed with a moth homozygous for the wild-type traits. The F1 have wild-type eyes and wild-type wings. The F1 are crossed with moths that have red eyes and white-banded wings in a testcross. The progeny of this testcross are wild-type eyes, wild-type wings red eyes, wild-type wings wild-type eyes, white-banded wings red eyes, white-banded wings a. What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes? b. What is the rate of recombination between the gene for red eyes and the gene for white-banded wings?Let’s suppose that two different X-linked genes exist in mice,designated with the letters N and L. Gene N exists in a dominant,normal allele and in a recessive allele, n, that is lethal. Similarly,gene L exists in a dominant, normal allele and in a recessive allele,l, that is lethal. Heterozygous females are normal, but males thatcarry either recessive allele are born dead. Explain whether or notit would be possible to map the distance between these two genesby making crosses and analyzing the number of living and deadoffspring. You may assume that you have strains of mice in whichfemales are heterozygous for one or both genes.Female flies with white eyes and miniature wings (both X-linkedrecessive traits) were crossed to male flies with red eyes and longwings. On rare occasions, female offspring were produced withwhite eyes. If we assume these females are due to errors in meiosis, what would be the most likely chromosomal composition ofsuch flies? What would be their wing length?
