What is the genetic distance between the eye colour locus (w) and the bristle locus (sn)? answer in Mu (Map units) and to 2 decimal places?   The following table summarises the results of the 2022-2023 Drosophila three-point cross involving the loci white eyes (w), miniature wings (m) and singed bristles (sn). The data is also available in the Excel file 'Drosophila Counts 2022-2023'. We strongly recommend working in Excel during this exercise.
