You want to map several loci known to be in a region relative to deletions. You select alleles of these loci that are recessive to their corresponding wild-type alleles. For each locus, you cross a homozygous recessive line to the deletion heterozygote stocks. For example, for locus A and DF1, you perform the following cross: aa x DF1/+. In this cross, you notice that 2 of the F progeny have the recessive (aa) phenotype. You conclude that the A locus is deleted by the DF1 deletion You continue this type of analysis for all five loci (A - E), crossing recessive homozygotes to each deletion heterozygote. The results are shown in the chart. A " indicates that all ofthe F, progeny are wild-type. Aindicates that 2 of the progeny have the recessive phenotype. Use the data in the chart to place the five loci on the map below in the blue boxes.

Question

This is an ungraded question about gene order that I found confusing.

If this question possibly violates the honor code, can I have another question that addressses this concept?
