- Hemophilia and color blindness are both recessive conditions caused by genes on the X chromosome. To calculate the recombination frequency between the two genes, you draw a large number of pedigrees that include grandfathers with both hemophilia and color blindness, their daughters (who presumably have one chromosome with two normal alleles and one chromosome with two mutant alleles), and the daughters sons. Analyzing all the pedigrees together shows that 25 grandsons have both color blindness and hemophilia, 24 have neither of the traits, 1 has color blindness only, and 1 has hemophilia only. How many centimorgans (map units) separate the hemophilia locus from the locus for color blindness?Why is a 50 percent recovery of single-crossover products theupper limit, even when crossing over always occurs between twolinked genes ?shows the results of a dihybrid cross involving seed shape and seed color. a. What proportion of the round and yellow F2 progeny from this cross is homozygous at both loci? b. What proportion of the round and yellow F2 progeny from this cross is homozygous at least at one locus?
- In mice, albinism (g) is recessive to grey coat colour (G). A grey mouse mated with an albino mouse. Over the course of several months, 38 pups were born. Out of 38 pups, 17 had a grey coat, and 21 were albino. Theoretically, what is the expected result from the parental cross of a grey mouse and an albino mouse, and why does the expected result not match the result stated in the information given above? a. Theoretically, there should be a 3:1 ratio of grey mice to albino mice, or 29 grey coat mice and 9 albino mice. With more litters, the actual results would match the expected results more closely. b. Theoretically, there should be a 1:1 ratio of grey mice to albino mice, or 19 grey coat mice and 19 albino mice. With more litters, the actual results would match the expected results more closely. c. Theoretically, 100% of the mice should have grey coats so all 38 offspring should have grey coats. There was an experimental error that can account for the deviation. d.…Two pure-breeding parents produced a heterozygous female offspring (AaBb) that was then testcrossed with an aabb male. The offspring produced from the testcross included 50 AaBb, 450 Aabb, 450 aaBb, 50 aabb individuals. Describe how you can tell if these two genes are linked or unlinked (What ratio would you expect to see from the testcross if they were not linked?). What were the genotypes of the original parents that produced the heterozygous female? What is the genetic map distance between the two genes?A homozygous strain of corn that produces yellow kernels is crossed with another homozygous strain that produces purple kernels. When the F1 are interbred, 197 of the F2 are yellow and 153 are prurple. Give the genotypes of the yellow and purple F2 and propose a genetic model that explains the inheritance of these kernel colors in corn.
