Chapter 18, Problem 1DA
Summary Introduction
To determine: The possible combinations that allow constructing the physical map with only a few numbers of clones using the given figure.
Introduction: Physical maps give the absolute distance among genetic markers. They use genetic markers, which can show any noticeable variations between individuals. Here, the distance is measured in basepairs (bp).
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The fewest number of clones that could be used to construct the physical maps is clone A and clone C. The combination of using clone A, clone B, and clone D also allows to construct physical maps. However, it is better to have all the four clones (A, B, C, and D) to verify.

You may insert a hand-drawn diagram of your map, but the rest of the assignment must be fully typed.
The data set attached presents the results of a testcross using female flies heterozygous for three traits and male flies, which are homozygous recessive. For simplicity, mutant alleles are shown with letters a, b, and c and wildtype alleles are indicated by a “+” symbol. For this part of the report do the following in order:
a) Determine the gene order (which gene is in the middle?)d) Construct a genetic map for the three genes, including the map distances between them. Clearly indicate the logic you followed and show all your calculations. Include the full distance calculations for the two most distanced genes (do not just add the other 2 distances).
Ensure the work is neat and clear and does not contain spelling or grammatical errors so that it is understandable.

- PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING LETTERS: a,b,c, and d Examine the pedigree of the McGraw family shown below. Certain individuals in this family are affected by a brain condition that makes them more susceptible to vertigo. As a genetic counselor, you interview the family and draw DNA samples. You discover that the condition is caused by a mutation that changes the sequence 5’GCATTC3’ to 5’GAATTC3’ introducing an EcoRI cut site. You decide to amplify a 1200bp fragment from the DNA that spans this mutation and then digest it with EcoRI. You run the results on a gel next to a marker that shows bands at 2000bp, 1200bp, 900bp, 800bp, and 400bp. Some individuals from the pedigree are identified on the gel.arrow_forwardThe table below shows the progeny of a test cross of a heterozygote (HhFfGg). Each row shows the number of progeny that inherited each combination of alleles from the heterozygous parent.

Consider the following pedigree and Southern blot using a probe that hybridizes to the RFLP. Which band/s is/are associated with DMD? What is the genotype for individuals 3 and 4? (Remember, this is an X linked disease, so use X’s and Y’s to denote). Individual 9 married a man who does NOT have muscular dystrophy, and she is pregnant. DMD is an X-linked trait.

- You've been having trouble sleeping because of your obsession with understanding the Rh factor (+ positive or - negative) in blood typing. Your blood type is O-. You know both of your parents phenotypes so you decide to visit a famous genetic counselor, Dr. Jean Etix. After she bills you $300, she tells you to take your parents' genotypes and "stick them in a punnet square!" Your Dad is B- and your Mom is A+. What are their possible genotypic combinations?

The result showed that among 22 children who developed the disease, 19 belonged to non-recombinants while 3 recombinants. For the remaining 28 children, 21 were non-recombinants and 7 belonged to recombinants. A Lod (Z) score can be calculated and used to determine whether this SNP is linked to the disease. By using a very stringent threshold, which of the following conclusions is correct? O A.Z is approximately 4.03, indicating a linkage O B. Z=0.25, indicating no linkage OCZ=0.2, indicating no linkage O D.Z is approximately 4.19, indicating a linkagearrow_forwardYou would like to isolate loci in the genome that influence plant height in tomato plants. Describe how you would achieve this through QTL mapping. Choose a true breeding tall strain and a true breeding short strain and compare the genomic sequences. Choose a true breeding tall strain and true breeding short strain and type them for molecular markers. Mate them together to produce F1 offspring and evaluate whether the F1 are tall or short. Choose two true breeding tall strains and compare the genomic sequences. Choose a true breeding tall strain and true breeding short strain and type them for molecular markers. Mate them together to produce F1 offspring. Genotype the F1 to identify makers that are associated with differences in plant height.
