Chapter 4, Problem 59P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The order of genes and the map distances between the four genes.
Introduction: The law of independent assortment was given in a dihybrid cross which is the cross between the alleles of two pairs of contrasting characters. The alleles produced by each character are independent to combine with the alleles of the other character. This independent sorting of the alleles irrespective of the dominant or the recessive trait is defined as the law of independent assortment.

A standard three-point mapping is conducted for recessive mutations in autosomal genes purple eye (pr), curved wing ( c) and black body (b). Their wild type alleles are also used for genetic mapping. An F1 Drosophila female heterozygous for purple eye (pr), curved wing (c) and black (b) is crossed to a triply homozygous mutant male. The observed numbers and phenotypes of the offspring are as follows:
360 pr c b
380 pr+ c+ b+
104 pr c+ b
96 pr+ c b+
30 pr c b+
20 pr+ c+ b

A) State the order of genes on this chromosome.
B) Calculate map distances between the gene pairs: pr-c, pr-b, c-b. Show calculations, state the number of map units and which gene pairs they refer to.
