Among a large population of 2 million gray mosquitoes, one mosquito is heterozygous for a body color gene; this mosquito has one gray allele and one blue allele. There is no selective advantage or disadvantage between gray and blue body color. All of the other mosquitoes carry two copies of the gray allele.
A. What is the probability of fixation of the blue allele?
B. If fixation happens to occur, how many generations is it likely to take?
C. Qualitatively, how would the answers to parts A and B be affected if the blue allele conferred a slight survival advantage?
Suppose researchers studied the first chromosome of a new species and mapped three genes of interest, indicated as a, b, and c. A three‑factor cross was performed and the number of gametes formed from the F2 generation was recorded in a table. Note that the order of genes in the table is arbitrary.
Calculate the recombination frequencies for each given gene pair in map units.

After completing the gene mapping, the researchers treated individuals to induce inversions in the chromosomes. After treatment, another three‑factor cross was performed and the number of gametes formed from the F2 generation was recorded in a second table. Note that the order of genes in the table is arbitrary.

Gene duplication d. Heterochronyarrow_forwardYou are interested if whether several genes of a certain species of beetle assort independently.
