Question
I am studying a pair of genes, A and B, that I think are both located on the same chromosome. After counting offspring from a test cross of an AaBb individual, I notice that recombination frequency for genes A and B is very low (~4%). From this, I can conclude that
Select one:
a.
A and B are sex-linked
b.
A and B are actually on different chromosomes
c.
A and B are very close together on the same chromosome
d.
A and B on the same chromosome, but far apart

Thank you You wanted to draw a linkage map for three genes in the fruit fly (A, B, C) that you suspect are linked. You have done a three-point testcross and found that out of the 1500 progeny in the cross, 612 are a · b · c, 603 are A · B · C, 93 are a · B · C, 85 are A · b · c, 53 are a · b · C, 47 are A · B · c, 5 are A · b · C, and 2 are a · B · c. From this data, you can deduce that the genes are linked and the distance between B and C is:arrow_forward
- A cross is made in tomatoes between a female plant thatis trisomic for chromosome 6 and a normal diploid maleplant that is homozygous for the recessive allele for potato leaf (p/p). A trisomic F1 plant is backcrossed to thepotato-leaved male.a. What is the ratio of normal-leaved plants to potatoleaved plants when you assume that p is located onchromosome 6?b.

In a typical meiosis, how many crossovers occurbetween genes C and D?d. Assume that the C and D loci are on the samechromosome, but the offspring from the testcrossdescribed in part (b) were 498 Cc Dd, 502 cc dd,504 Cc dd, and 496 cc Dd.
