Step by step
Solved in 4 steps
- In your own words, explain why a testcross cannot produce more than 50% recombinant offspring. When a testcross does produce 50% recombinant offspring, what does this result mean?Could you have generated a chromosome map from the F2 progeny in cross 1 (assuming you crossed F1 males and females to each other to generate the F2)? What is the advantage of using cross 2 instead?The A locus and the D locus are so tightly linked that norecombination is ever observed between them. If Ad/Ad is crossed with aD/aD and the F1 is intercrossed,what phenotypes will be seen in the F2 and in whatproportions?
- When true-breeding mice with brown fur and short tails (BBtt)were crossed to true-breeding mice with white fur and long tails(bbTT), all of the F1 offspring had brown fur and long tails. TheF1 offspring were crossed to mice with white fur and short tails.What are the possible phenotypes of the F2 offspring? Which F2offspring are recombinant, and which are nonrecombinant? Whatare the ratios of phenotypes of the F2 offspring if independentassortment is taking place? How are the ratios affected by linkage?In a three-point testcross such as this one, why aren’t the F1 and the tester considered to be parental in calculating recombination? (They are parents in one sense.)In letter B: If the map distance equals the number of recombinant/total of offspring, wouldn't it be 24/806 x 100? Wouldn't we add both recombinants? Can you explain letter C? I don't grasp that concept well. And since I'm using my question already, would you be able to answer D. Thank you!
- You have determined that the gene order for three linked genes being studied is A B C. The number of recombinants resulting from crossover between genes A and BC are 44 and 48, respectively, while the double-crossover progeny total 4 and 6. What is the recombination frequency between genes A and B if the total progeny from the cross is 1000? Show all of your work.In a species of firefly, wide wings (W) are dominant to narrow wings (w) and graybodies (C) are dominant to brown bodies (c). A WwCc and wwcc fly were mated andproduced the following offspring: (in the picture attached) What is the recombination frequency for this cross (in percent)?When Calvin Bridges observed a large number of offspring from a cross of white-eyed female Drosophila tored-eyed males, he found very rare white-eyed femalesand red-eyed males among the offspring. He was ableto show that these exceptions resulted from nondisjunction, such that the white-eyed females had received twoXs from the egg and a Y from the sperm, while thered-eyed males had received no sex chromosome fromthe egg and an X from the sperm. What progeny wouldhave arisen from these same kinds of nondisjunctionalevents if they had occurred in the male parent? Whatwould their eye colors have been?
- In an autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. a. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: The F1’s are intercrossed? The F1’s are crossed with red plantsIn a particular organism, the A locus and the D locus are so tightly linked that no crossing over is ever observed between them. If an AADD individual is crossed to an aadd individual, what types of gametes will their double-heterozygote F1 offspring produce and in what proportions? Group of answer choices 25% parental and 75% recombinant gametes 75% parental and 25% recombinant gametes 100% parental and 0% recombinant gametes 50% parental and 50% recombinant gametes 0% parental and 100% recombinant gametesIn a cross between mice the genotypes AB/ab x ab/ab, what is the recombination frequency if the progeny numbers are 72 AB/ab, 68 ab/ab, 17 Ab/ab, and 21 aB/ab?
