Summary Introduction

To determine:

a) The types of gametes that are produced with complete linkage in a testcross for two genes; (b) The types of gamete that are produced with independent assortment in a testcross for two genes; (c) The types of gamete that are produced with incomplete linkage in a testcross for two genes.

Introduction:

Testcross is the genetic cross between an individual that has the dominant phenotype in specific trait to a homozygous recessive for these specific traits. Testcross is used to identify the genotype of the individual carrying dominant phenotype, and also used to check the linkage between genes. Three cases arise when testcross is performed. These cases are: complete linkage, independent assortment, and incomplete linkage.

If you transplant trunk neural crest into the cranial neural crest region of a developing embryo, will you see the donor tissue form cartilage? Does the neural crest only give rise to two cells in the developing embryo, and is essential for lamprey to develop their jaw structure? Does a multipotent neural crest cell that is receiving Wnt signals become a Chromaffin cell?
Using quail and chick embryos, quail-specific antibody and fluorescent tissue-specific antibodies, design an experiment where you investigate the tissues the cranial neural crest can give rise to.  What are four derivatives of the cranial neural crest that you expect to see in the resulting chimeric embryos?
Does the neural crest have to undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition prior to migration through the developing embryo?  Does the neural crest differentiate into different cell types based on their axial position along the anterior and posterior axis?
