In fruit flies, red eyes (pr+_) are dominant to purple eyes (prpr) and normal wings (vg+_) are dominant to vestigial wings (vgvg). The genes are located on the same chromosome. A purebreeding red-eyed fly with vestigial wings was crossed with a pure-breeding purple-eyed fly with normal wings. All of the F1 progeny had a WT phenotype. The recombination frequency between the two genes is 15%. If an F1 individual was test crossed, what percentage of the progeny would you expect to have the WT phenotype
In Drosophila, the brown mutation (bw, chromosome 2, position 104.5) results in brown eyes, while miniature (min, chromosome X, position 36.1) results in wings that are 2/3 the length of wild type. True breeding, wild type females are mated with true breeding males with brown eyes and miniature wings.

In Drosophila, singed bristles (sn) and cut wings (ct) are both caused by recessive, X-linked alleles. 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. The F2 males are distributed as follows:

In the F1, all females were wild type, while all males expressed all three mutant traits. The cross was carried to the F2 generation, and 1000 offspring were counted, with the results shown in the following table. Phenotype Offspring sc s v 314 + + + 280 + s v 150 sc + + 156 sc + v 46 + s + 30 sc s + 10 + + v 14 No determination of sex was made in the data. (a) Using proper nomenclature, determine the genotypes of the P1 and F1 parents. (b) Determine the sequence of the three genes and the map distances between them. (c) Are there more or fewer double crossovers than expected? (d) Calculate the coefficient of coincidence. Does it represent positive or negative interference?arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the allele for red eyes (pt) is wild-type and the allele for purple eyes (p¯) is mutant. The allele for grey body (b+) is wild-type and the allele for black body (b¯) is mutant. Flies with p*p* b*b* genotypes are mated with flies that have p p- b¯b¯ genotypes. A testcross was then performed in which the F1 offspring with p*p¯ b*b¯ genotypes were mated with flies with p p¯ b¯b genotypes. Ten-thousand flies were produced from this test cross. The following results were observed: 4,300 red eye, grey body flies 550 red eye, black body flies 4,500 purple eye, black body flies 650 purple eye, grey body flies Which F2 phenotypes are parental types? Which F2 phenotypes are recombinant types? What is the distance between the gene loci for eye color and body color? Use the equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for the following questions. p+q = 1 p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1arrow_forward
- Another cross in Drosophila involved the recessive, X-linked genes yellow (y), white (w) and cut (ct). A yellow-bodied, white-eyed female with normal wings was crossed to a male whose eyes and body were normal but whose wings were cut. The F1 females were wild type for all three traits, while the F1 males expressed the yellow-body and white eyes traits. The cross was carried to an F2 progeny and only male offspring were tallied. Based on the data shown here, a genetic map was constructed. a) Diagram the genotypes of the F1 parents. b) Construct a map, assuming the white is at locus 1.5 on the X-chromosome.

The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. Each of the F1 GGgg plants would obtain 12 gametes which are 2GG, 8Gg, and 2g. How were these obtained?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.

- The 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?

Why or why not?arrow_forwardThe 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.

- In Drosophila melanogaster, red eyes are dominant over white and the variation for this characteristic is on the X chromosome. Vestigial wings (v) are recessive to normal (V) for an autosomal gene. Predict the appearance of offspring of the following crosses: XW/Xw V/v×Xw/Y v/v, Xw/Xw V/v × XW/Y V/v.arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the dominant Bar mutation (B, chromosome X, position 57) results in thin bar- shaped eyes, while the recessive singed (sn, chromosome X, position 21) results burnt looking bristles. True breeding, wild type females are mated with true breeding males with Bar eyes and singed bristles. Using Drosophila notation, diagram the P1 and F1 crosses.

Phenotype Females Males Overall (♀and ♂) =1 =1 =1arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, a cross was made between a yellow-bodied male with vestigial wings and a wild-type (WT) female(brown body and normal wings). The F1 generation consisted of WT males and WT females. The F1 males and females were crossed, and the F2 progeny consisted of 16 yellow males with vestigial wings, 48 yellow males with WT wings, 15 brown males with vestigial wings, 49 WT males, 31 brown females with vestigial wings, and 97 WT females. Based on these results, explain the inheritance of the two genes (i.e. autosomal or sex-linked, dominant or recessive).arrow_forward
