What would be the genotype(s) of F2 offspring that carry recombinant chromosomes? (Note: recombinant chromosomes are the product of crossing over). What percentage of F2 offspring would be Aabb?

At the "bl" locus (=gene), the wild phenotype has a light colored body, while the mutant has a dark colored body. At the "br" locus, the wild phenotype has red eyes while the mutant phenotype has brown eyes. You have performed a dihybrid cross (P = bl/bl, br/br x bl+/bl+, br+/br+). Therefore, the F1 consists entirely of individuals with the bl/bl+, br/br+ phenotype. a. Using a branch diagram, show the expected genotype frequencies for the F2 (a cross between F1 individuals).

The phenotype of crooked wings (cw) in Drosophila melanogaster is caused by a recessive mutant gene that independently assorts with a recessive mutant gene for hairy (h) body. Assume that a cross is made between a fly with normal wings and a hairy body and a fly with crooked wings and normal body hair. All F1 flies from this cross were wild-type, and these flies were crossed among each other to produce 288 F2 offspring. Which phenotypes would you expect among the offspring in the F2 generation, and how many of each phenotype would you expect?

Draw a Punnett square for the dihybrid cross described below (it is the same story as given for question 8, above) and use it to fill in the blanks correctly in the text that follows. NOTE: Please type in whole numbers, no symbols. There are two known alleles of gene occupying a specific locus in the X chromosome. The gene in question codes for a transcription factor involved in digit development. The mutant allele is dominant and gives rise to an additional but non-functioning little finger (polydactyly) on both hands. A couple have had their DNA sequenced at the region of interest, the male exhibits polydactyly because of the mutation, the female is homozygous wild type at the same locus and therefore has the wild type phenotype. Both have green eyes. In this story; eye colour shows a monogenic autosomal inheritance pattern and the allele for brown eyes shows incomplete dominance with that for blue eyes, the heterozygote phenotype is green eyes. The genes for eye colour and…
