The following X-linked recessive traits are found in fruit flies:vermilion eyes are recessive to red eyes, miniature wings are recessiveto long wings, and sable body is recessive to gray body. A cross wasmade between wild-type males with red eyes, long wings, and graybodies and females with vermilion eyes, miniature wings, and sablebodies. The heterozygous female offspring from this cross, whichhad red eyes, long wings, and gray bodies, were then crossed tomales with vermilion eyes, miniature wings, and sable bodies.

- In Drosophila fruit flies, the genes for warped wings (dwp), rumpled bristles (rmp), and pallid wings (pld) are linked. A trihybrid female for all three allleles is crossed with homozygous recessive male for all three alleles and the offspring obtained showed the following phenotypes: 3 pld rmp dwp 428 pld rmp + 427 + + dwp 48 + rmp + 47 pld + dwp 23 pld + + 2 + + + 22 + rmp dwp What is the order and map distance between these three alleles?arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the sepia mutation (se, chromosome 3, position 26) results in dark brown eyes, while cinnabar (cn, chromosome 2, position 57.5) results in bright orange-red eyes. True breeding, wild type females are mated with true breeding males homozygous recessive for both traits. Using Drosophila notation, diagram the P1 and F1 crosses.

The wild type alleles (sn+ and ct+) are responsible for straight bristles and intact wings, respectively. A female homozygous for sn and ct+ is crossed to a sn+ct male. The F1 flies are interbred.

Males who have a single N allele will also die. The heterozygous condition (Nn) causes small notches on the wing. The normal condition in both male and females is represented by the allele n. a) Indicate the phenotypes of the F1 generation from the following cross: XNXn x XnY b) Explain why dead females are never found in the F1 generation no matter which parents are crossed. c) Explain why the mating of female XNXn and a male XNy is unlikely.arrow_forward
- In Drosophila, an X-linked recessive mutation, Xm causes miniature wings. List the F2 phenotypic ratios if: a miniature-winged female is crossed with a normal male and a miniature-winged male is crossed with a normal female. What would the phenotypic ratio from (a) be if the miniature-winged gene were autosomal? Assume in all cases that the P1 individuals are true-breeding.arrow_forwardThe phenotype of vestigial (short) wings (vg) in Drosophila melanogaster is caused by a recessive mutant gene that independently assorts with a recessive gene for hairy (h) body. Assume that a cross is made between a fly that is homozygous for normal wings and has a hairy body and a fly with vestigial wings that is homozygous for normal body. The wild-type F1 flies were crossed among each other to produce 1024 F2 offspring. Which phenotypes would you expect among the F2 offspring, and how many of each phenotype would you expect?
