A, B, and C genes are linked with B in the middle. AB are 8 cM and BC are 14 cM apart. If ABc/abC is testcrossed to abc/abc, what is the number of double crossovers you would expect to observe if 1000 progeny result from this testcross with a coefficient of coincidence (C) of 0.36.

Select one:

A. about 11

B. about 4

C. about 14

D. about 8

Drosophila has three linked autosomal genes that determine different traits. These genes are black (b), vestigial (vg), and singed(sn). Each of the three genes has two alleles: a dominant wild type allele, indicated by a "+" (plus) and a recessive mutant allele indicated by a "-" (minus). (These mutant alleles cause dark black spots, short "vestigial" wings, and bent "singed" hairs, respectively, when homozygous). A testcross is conducted between females that all have the same genotype and are triple heterozygotes...
