Below are two pictures of perithecium on microscope slides that have been squished under cover slips so that the asci inside have spread
out. In the asci, we can clearly see the tan ascospores (light colored) and wildtype ascospores (dark colored). We will perform our tetrad
analysis by counting how many of the asci are non-recombinant and how many of the acsi are recombinant. We can tell which are
recombinant and non-recombinant by observing the patterns of the ascospores in the asci. See the patterns of ascospores for non-
recombinant and recombinant asci in the table below.

You will count the total number of non-recombinant and recombinant asci in the two pictures below. You will only count the asci that
have a star next to them because these asci can be clearly identified as non-recombinant or recombinant. Select the correct number
below after you are done.

A blood stain from a crime scene and blood samples from four suspects were analyzed by PCR using fluorescent primers associated with three STR loci: D3S1358, vWA, and FGA. The resulting electrophoretograms are shown below. The numbers beneath each peak identify the allele (upper box) and the height of the peak in relative fluorescence units (lower box). Solve, (a) Since everyone has two copies of each chromosome and therefore, two alleles of each gene, what accounts for the appearance ofonly one allele at some loci? (b) Which suspect is a possible source of the blood? (c) Could the suspect be identifi ed using just one of the three STR loci? (d) What can you conclude about the amount of DNA obtained from Suspect 1 compared to Suspect 4?
You cross two yeast strains one is an ade auxotroph the other is a pro auxotroph and allow
the diploid to sporulate. When you score each spore in the ascus you find the following
proportions: 518 PD, 8 NPD, and 225 T.
a.) What are the genotypes of each spore in all three types of the tetrads.
b) Are these genes linked why or why not?
c.) If these genes are unlinked what would you expect the progeny numbers and ratios to
be?
d.) What is the formula to determine the most accurate distance between these genes? If
linked what is the map distance?

Three compounds (A, B and C) in the biosynthetic pathway to W are known, but their order in the pathway is unknown.
