Question

In the tomato, three genes are linked on the same chromosome. Tall
is dominant to dwarf, skin that is smooth is dominant to skin that is
peachy, and fruit with a normal rounded tomato shape is dominant
to oblate (flattened) shape. A plant that is true-breeding for the
dominant traits was crossed to a dwarf plant with peachy skin and
oblate fruit. The F1 plants were then testcrossed to dwarf plants with
peachy skin and oblate fruit. The following results were obtained:

151 tall, smooth, normal
33 tall, smooth, oblate
11 tall, peach, oblate
2 tall, peach, normal
155 dwarf, peach, oblate
29 dwarf, peach, normal
12 dwarf, smooth, normal
0 dwarf, smooth, oblate

A) Determine the coefficient of coincidence and the interference for these three loci.
