Obviously this represents independent assortment based on crossing dihybrid
heterozygotes.
Obviously this represents gene linkage based on test crossing a dihybrid
heterozygote.
Obviously this represents the results of a trihybrid test cross.
Obviously this represents independent assortment based on crossing monohybrid
heterozygotes.
The recombination frequencies (RF) of genes A, B, C, and D are as follows:

0.21
0.04
0.48
In letter B: If the map distance equals the number of recombinant/total of offspring, wouldn't it be 24/806 x 100? Wouldn't we add both recombinants?
Can you explain letter C? I don't grasp that concept well.
And since I'm using my question already, would you be able to answer D.
Thank you!

To calculate the recombination frequency between the two genes, you draw a large number of pedigrees that include grandfathers with both hemophilia and color blindness, their daughters (who presumably have one chromosome with two normal alleles and one chromosome with two mutant alleles), and the daughters sons. Analyzing all the pedigrees together shows that 25 grandsons have both color blindness and hemophilia, 24 have neither of the traits, 1 has color blindness only, and 1 has hemophilia only. How many centimorgans (map units) separate the hemophilia locus from the locus for color blindness?arrow_forwardIn a diploid plant species, an F1 with the genotype Mm Rr Ss is test crossed to a pure breeding recessive plant with the genotype mm rr ss.
