You are working with a hypothetical fly and have found color and wing
mutants. Preliminary work indicates that the mutant traits are recessive and
the associated genes are not sex-linked, but beyond that, you have no
information. You first look at 2 genes, each with 2 alleles. "B" or “b" for body
color and "W" or "w" for wing surface. The red-body phenotype is dominant
to the yellow-body phenotype and smooth wings are dominant to crinkled
wings.
In garden peas, yellow seeds (Y)(Y) are dominant to green seeds (y)(y), and inflated pods (I)(I) are dominant to constricted pods (i)(i). Suppose you have crossed YYIIYYII parents with yyiiyyii parents. What would be all the genotype(s) of gametes produced by F1F1 individuals?

The F1 females are backcrossed with graymales. Give the genotypes and phenotypes, along with the expected proportions, of the F2progeny.(d) If the F2 flies in part b mate randomly, what are the expected phenotypic proportions offlies in the F3??arrow_forwardIndicate whether to cross (i) mutant females with wild-type males, or (ii) mutant males with wild-type females, or (iii) both (i.e. reciprocal crosses), to produce an F1 generation that will enable you to determine if the traits are dominant or recessive, and if they are sex-linked (on the X chromosome). Draw mating diagrams and Punnett squares to support your answer. To determine whether the mutant genes are independent or linked, a testcross is more appropriate than using data from the F2 generation. Knowing which are the recessive genes, indicate which individuals you would mate in this testcross. Draw a mating diagram & use the forked line method to predict the outcome of this cross. Conduct the appropriate testcross using Drosophila Lab, record your results and indicate whether the three mutant genes are inherited independently or whether they are linked? Include a chi square analysis to support your conclusion.arrow_forward
