Question
Chapter 15.3, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The order of the genes A, B, and C on the chromosome.
Concept introduction:
Recombination frequency is the number of times a particular chromosome is crossed over between two genes. Distance between the two genes can be estimated by the recombination frequency as the recombination frequency is the measure for mapping the position of genes.

Trihybrid Cross: Several testcrosses have revealed the rate of recombination for the following genes which are KNOWN TO BE LINKED:
k-m 0.30
k-l 0.76
l-m 0.50
What is the order of the three genes and why is the frequency of recombination between the closest pair of genes not equal to the recombination rate between the two genes farthest apart? (0.8 > 0.76)
WHAT IF? Genes A, B, and C are located on the samechromosome. Testcrosses show that the recombinationfrequency between A and B is 28% and that betweenA and C is 12%. Can you determine the linear order ofthese genes? Explain.
Crossover frequencies for some genes on a tomato
plant:
• Normal leaves (M) and tall plant (D) 12%
• Normal leaves (M) and normal tomato (O) 33%
• Normal leaves (M) and simple florescence (S) 64%
• Tall plant (D) and normal tomato (0) 21%
• Tall plant (D) and simple fluorescence (S) 52%
Draw a chromosome map and state the cross-over
frequency between genes for a normal tomato and
simple florescence.

- . Chromosome 3 of corn carries three loci (b for plant-color booster, v for virescent, and lg for liguleless). A testcross of triple recessives with F1 plants heterozygous forthe three genes yields progeny having the followinggenotypes: 305 + v lg, 275 b + +, 128 b + lg, 112 + v +,74 + + lg, 66 b v +, 22 + + +, and 18 b v lg.

The three genes are located close together on the same chromosome. Your task is to use data from three dihybrid testcrosses to (1) calculate recombination frequencies, (2) convert recombination frequencies into map distances, and (3) build a map of the chromosome interval covered by the three genes, indicating their order and distances between them. BLACK PURPLE DIHYBRID CROSS In the parental generation, you mate a pure-breeding wild-type female (bl+/blt;put/pu+) with a pure-breeding black, purple male (bl/bl;pu/pu) to produce an F1 generation that is all wild-type (bl+/bl;pu*/pu). Note that the F1 flies are all dihybrid. Next, you mate several F1 dihybrid females (bl+/bl;pu*/pu) with tester males, which are black, purple…arrow_forwardProgeny of triploid tomato plants often contain parts of an extra chromosome, in addition to the normal complement of 24 chromosomes . Mutantswith a part of an extra chromosome are referred to as secondaries. James and Margaret Lesley observed that secondaries arise from triploid (3 n), trisomic (3 n + 1), and double trisomic (3 n + 1 + 1) parents, but never from diploids (2 n). Give one or more possible reasons that secondaries arise from parents that have unpaired chromosomes but not from parents that are normal diploids.arrow_forward
