Chapter 4, Problem 17P
Summary Introduction
To explain: The results obtained by performing a cross between a female animal with genotype A/a · B/b and a double-recessive male (a/a · b/b).
Introduction: The presence of genes on different chromosomes leads to their independent assortment regardless of crossing over. In contrast, genes present on the same chromosome may cause linkage and leads to the non-independent assortment.

A female animal with genotype A/a ⋅ B/b is crossed with a double-recessive male (a/a ⋅ b/b). Their progeny include 442 A/a ⋅ B/b, 458 a/a ⋅ b/b, 46 A/a ⋅ b/b, and 54 a/a ⋅ B/b. Explain these results.
From parents of genotypes A/A ⋅ B/B and a/a ⋅ b/b, adihybrid was produced. In a testcross of the dihybrid,the following seven progeny were obtained:A/a ⋅ B/b, a/a ⋅ b/b, A/a ⋅ B/b, A/a ⋅ b/b,a/a ⋅ b/b, A/a ⋅ B/b, and a/a ⋅ B/bDo these results provide convincing evidence of linkage?
Consider the following dihybrid testcross: B/b • E/e × b/b • e/e
For the progeny from this testcross, determine the relative proportions (from 0% to 100%) of each genotype if the two genes:
a) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) with no crossing over: Be/be:
be/be:
BE/be:
bE/be:
b) assort independently.
B/b; E/e:

c) are linked (dominant alleles in cis conformation) and 20 map units apart. Be/be:
