Transcribed Image Text:Waxy endosperm (wx), shrunken endosperm (sh), and yellow
seedling (v) are encoded by three recessive genes in corn that
are linked on chromosome 5. A corn plant homozygous for
all three recessive alleles is crossed with a plant homozygous
for all the dominant alleles. The resulting Fi are then crossed
with a plant homozygous for the recessive alleles in a three-
point testcross. The progeny of the testcross are:
