Question

Imagine that the genes for seed color and seed shape are located on the same chromosome. A cross is made between two true-breeding plants.  One plant produces green wrinkled seed (rryy) and the second parent produced round yellow seeds (RRYY). A test cross is made between the F1 generation with the following results:

green, wrinkled          645

green round               36

yellow wrinkled          29

yellow round              590

a) Draw the chromosomes of parents and four types of offsprings and show the recombinant and non-recombinants in the offsprings.

b)  What is the recombination frequency between two loci?
