Three genes in Drosophila , X, Y and Z are linked. However, the order of the genes is not known. Two true breeding individuals of the genotype (genes not given in the correct order) x+y+z/x+y+z and x y z+/x y z+ were crossed and the FI trihybrid was test crossed. Double crossover genotypes were x y+z/x y z and x+yz+/ z y z. Based on this information the correct order of genes is [________________________].

In corn, there are three recessive genes (a, b, and r) that are linked on chromosome 3. A homozygous recessive plant is crossed with a wild-type plant. The F1 is crossed to get an F2 generation with 1370 individuals that had the following genotypes: a b r : 44 aBr: 460 A b r : 14 abR: 164 AbR: 474 aBR: 16 ABr: 158 ABR: 4 It is possible to develop a gene map, showing the order of the loci...

Three Drosophila genes on the X chromosome occupy three different loci. The mutant versions of these genes are y for yellow body ct for cut wing ec for echinus (spiky eyes) When a cross is between female X, and male Y flies, the P and F1 have the following genotype + + +/y ct ec When the F1 is selfed to create the F2, most wild type genes remain linked on the same chromosome, as do the mutant genes on...

Assume that genes X and Y are linked and are 20 cM apart. Also assume that an individual homozygous for X and y is cross to an individual homozygous for x and Y to produce an F1 individual. True/False: 40% of the gametes produced by this F1 individual should be x Y gametes. Assume that this F1 individual is crossed with an xx yy homozygote. True/False: 10% of the progeny should be heterozygous for both genes.

Genetics Question: You have three genes on a genetic map in the order of X, Y, and Z. X to Y is 20 cM and Y to Z is 17 cM. However, you see less crossovers than you had anticipated between X and Z. Why is this and how do you find the true rate of recombination between X and Z?

Two different female Drosophila were isolated, each heterozygous for the autosomally linked genes b (black body), d (dachs tarsus), and c (curved wings). These genes are in the order d–b–c, with b being closer to d than to c. Shown here is the genotypic arrangement for each female along with the various gametes formed by both: Female A Female B db+++c d+++bc ? Gamete formation ? (1) d b c (5) d + + (1) d b + (5) d...

Wing size in Drosophila results from a pair of X-linked partially dominant alleles. LM produces long wings and Lm produces miniature wings. When both alleles are present in the heterozygous condition, medium-sized wings are produced. A female fly with miniature wings is crossed with a male that has long wings. a). What are the genotypes of the female and male flies described above? What are the genotypes of the gametes that each fly makes? (4 pts) Female genotype:                                                         Female gamete(s):...

8) You just isolated a new strain of mutant mice, and preliminary mating suggest that the new mutant phenotype is not inherited in an autosomal fashion. Circumstantial evidence seems to indicate that the mutant phenotype may be following either an X-linked dominant or a mitochondrial-type inheritance pattern. Assume the mice are true breeding. a) What informative crosses would you set up to distinguish between these two possibilities? b) How would you interpret your results? 9. You are crossing two individuals...
