From parents of genotypes A/A ⋅ B/B and a/a ⋅ b/b, adihybrid was produced. In a testcross of the dihybrid,the following seven progeny were obtained:A/a ⋅ B/b, a/a ⋅ b/b, A/a ⋅ B/b, A/a ⋅ b/b,a/a ⋅ b/b, A/a ⋅ B/b, and a/a ⋅ B/bDo these results provide convincing evidence of linkage?
Consider the following dihybrid testcross: B/b • E/e × b/b • e/e For the progeny from this testcross, determine the relative proportions (from 0% to 100%) of each genotype if the two genes: a) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) with no crossing over: Be/be: be/be: BE/be: bE/be: b) assort independently. B/b; E/e: B/b; e/e: b/b; E/e: b/b; e/e: c) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) and 20 map units apart. Be/be: be/be: BE/be: bE/be:

The non-wild-type alleles are k (clipped wings), l (long tail), and m (magical powers). The parental stocks are homozygous doubly recessive flies of genotype k+/k+ · l/l · m/m and homozygous singly recessive flies of genotype k/k · l+/l+ · m+/m+. From this cross, triply heterozygous progeny of genotype k/k+ · l/l+ · m/m+ are obtained, and females of this genotype are testcrossed to triple recessives of genotype k/k · l/l · m/m. The genotypes determining the eight progeny types from this testcross (CROSS C) are shown here with their numbers, out of a total sample of 1,572 flies. What is the correct order of the genes?
