Introduction:
The reciprocal cross is a duo of crosses between a male of one strain and a female of other and vice versa. It is used to investigate the role of parental sex on a given inheritance pattern. It is used to identify whether the allele is present on an autosome or on the sex-chromosome.
Explanation of Solution
In the reciprocal cross, the parental genotype is reversed to test the role of the paternal sex on the inheritance pattern. If the F
The other than autosome allele can either be inherited from the sex chromosome or by parental inheritance. In parental inheritance, two possible explanations for the change in result would be-
Homoplasmy - homoplastic cells have organelles with the same genotype.
Heteroplasmy - Heteroplasmic cells contain a mixture of the allele.
The reciprocal cross shows a different result in F

- Short hair (S) in rabbits is dominant over long hair (s). The following crosses are carried out, producing the progeny shown. Give all possible genotypes of the parents in each cross.arrow_forward1)se; 12 cM 2)h; 12 cM 3)g; 8 cM 4)se; 8 cMarrow_forwardHello, i understand the question, but i only need to know which option is right, no need for explanation. I mean jsut say which option, thanks in advance.arrow_forward
- Please show proper explanation and solution for me to understand better. Thank youuuu :)arrow_forwardTo determine the recombination frequency between body color and wing genes in flies, you perform several crosses where you cross an F1 having red body and smooth wings with a yellow-bodied, crinkle-winged fly. You get the following results. What is the distance between the genes for body color and wing surface in map units?arrow_forwardA Neurospora cross was made between a strain that carried the mating-type allele A and the mutant allele arg-1and another strain that carried the mating-type allele aand the wild-type allele for arg-1 (+). Four hundred linear octads were isolated, and they fell into the sevenclasses given in the table below. (For simplicity, they areshown as tetrads.)a. Deduce the linkage arrangement of the mating-typelocus and the arg-1 locus. Include the centromere orcentromeres on any map that you draw. Label all intervalsin map units.b. Diagram the meiotic divisions that led to class 6. Labelclearlyarrow_forward
- Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?arrow_forwardConsider three genes L, U, and W, for which the count of F2 phenotypes after a 3-point cross is as follows: Phenotype F2 count: L U w 19 L u W 1 l u W 21 L U W 33 l U W 274 l u w 41 l U w 2 L u w 259 Which of the following statements about genes L, U, and W are TRUE? (may be more than one correct ans) A. L, U, and W are each on a different chromosome B. Only U and L are on the same chromosome C. Only U and W are on the same chromosome D. Only W and L are on the same chromosome E. L, U, and W are all on the same chromosomearrow_forwardConsider the first category of test-cross offspring shown in figure 8.2 (+b, LS). Consider also that the parents of the heterozygous female flies in the test cross had the following genotypes: bb, SS, and +, LL. A. What would be the physical phenotype of these flies? B. If PC was conducted with the DNA of one of these flies using the primers for the molecular marker, what would be the appearance of the bands on an electrophoresis gel with the PC products? C. If the gene for black body and the locus for the molecular marker (L long or S short) were unlinked, what proportion of the test-cross progeny would be black flies that are heterozygous for the molecular marker? What proportion would be flies with normal body color, which are homozygous for one form of the molecular marker? D. If the gene for black body and the locus for the molecular marker were linked, how would the proportion of flies be different?arrow_forward
- 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?arrow_forwardMultiple crosses were made between true-breeding lines of black and yellow Labrador retrievers. All the F1 progeny were yellow. When these progeny were intercrossed, they produced an F2 consisting of 121 yellow, 9 black and 30 chocolate. What epistatic ratio and what kind of epistasis is approximated in the F2? Propose a biochemical pathway for coat color in Labrador retrievers based on the type of epistasis. Correlate each genotype with the phenotype that would occur in your pathway. Also show the frequency of each genotype. A-B- A-bb aaB- aabbarrow_forwardWhat is the expected number of double crossovers based on the map? What is observed number of double crossover’s based on the data in the table? Calculate the interference using the formula.. Interpret the interference in terms of whether a crossover inhibits or stimulates an additional crossover in the same interval of the chromosome?arrow_forward
