In Drosophila, a cross was made between females and wild-type males. The female parents expressed the three X-linked recessive traits miniature wing (m), ebony body (e) and cinnabar eye (c). In the F1, all females were wild type, while all males expressed all three mutant traits. The cross was carried to the F2 generation, and 1500 offspring were produced. 412 Miniature wing, ebony body, cinnabar eye Wild type Ebony body, cinnabar eye Miniature wing Miniature wing, cinnabar eye Ebony body Miniature wing, ebony body Cinnabar eye 403 211 224 103 96 23 28 Using proper nomenclature, determine the genotypes of the females and males in generation P and F1.

One of the X chromosomes in a particular Drosophila female had a normal order of genes but carried recessive alleles of the genes for yellow body color (y), vermilion eye color (v), and forked bristles (f), as well as the dominant X-linked Bar eye mutation (B). Her other X chromosome carried the wild-type alleles of all four genes, but the region including y+, v+, and f+ (but not B+) was inverted with respect to the normal order of genes. This female was crossed to a wild- type male in the cross diagrammed her. The cross produced the following male offspring:* table in figure a. Why are there no male offspring with the allele combinations y v f+, v+ v+ f, y v+ f+, or y+ v f (regardless of the allele of the Bar eye gene)?b. What kinds of crossovers produced the y v f b+ and v+ y+ f+ B offspring? Can you determine any genetic distances from these classed of progeny?c. What kinds of crossovers produced the y+ v f+ B+ and y v+ f B offspring?

In Drosophila, vermilion eye color is due to a recessive allele (v) located on the X chromosome. Curved wings are due to a recessive allele (cu) located on one autosome, and ebony body is due to a recessive allele (e) located on another autosome. A vermilion male is mated to a curved, ebony female, and the F1 males are phenotypically wild-type. If these males were backcrossed to curved, ebony females, what proportion of the F2 offspring will be wild-type males?
Female Drosophila heterozygous for three recessive mutations e (ebony body), st (scarlet eyes), and ss (spineless bristles) were testcrossed, and the following progeny were obtained: Phenotype Number wild-type 67 ebony 8 ebony, scarlet 68 ebony, spineless 347 ebony, scarlet, spineless 78 scarlet 368 scarlet, spineless 10 spineless 54 (a) What indicates that the genes are linked?

In Drosophila, males from a true-breeding stock with raspberry-colored eyes were mated to females from a true-breeding stock with sable-colored bodies. In the F1 generation, all the females had wild-type eye and body color, while all the males had wild-type eye color but sable-colored bodies. When F1 males and females were mated to each other, the F2 was composed of: 216 females with wild-type eyes and wild-type bodies 223 females with wild-type eyes and sable bodies 191 males with wild-type eyes and sable bodies 188 males with raspberry eyes and wild-type bodies 23 males with wild-type eyes and bodies 27 males with raspberry eyes and sable bodies Which statements are consistent with the above data? (Select all correct answers.) The alleles causing the raspberry-colored eye and sable-colored body phenotypes are dominant to the corresponding wild-type alleles The genes controlling raspberry-colored eyes and sable-colored bodies map…
The mutant genes for vestigial wings and singed bristles are approximately 30 map units apart on chromosome II in Drosophila. Assume that a vestigial-winged female was mated to a singed-bristle male, and that the resulting F1 phenotypically wild type females were mated to vestigial singed males. Of 1000 offspring, which phenotype class would represent the product of crossing over between the genes, and how many would you expect? a) vestigial, 300 flies b) vestigial, 150 flies wild type, 300 flies d) singed, 150 flies e) vestigial, singed double mutants, 150 flies

It is assumed that in Drosophila the following genotypes produce phenotypes. َA- B- = Red color A- bb = Plum color aa B- = Magenta color aa bb = White color The third latent genotype, cc, kills homozygous Plums, but has no effect on other genotypes. Also, genotype C- does not produce a large phenotype. If first-generation Drosophilas are heterozygous for all of these genes and interbreed, what phenotypic ratios are expected in society?
Sepia eyes, spineless bristles, and striped body are three recessive mutations in Drosophila found on chromosome 3. A genetics student crosses a fly homozygous for the alleles encoding sepia eyes, spineless bristles, and striped body with a fly homozygous for the wild-type alleles—encoding red eyes, normal bristles, and solid body. The female progeny are then test-crossed with males that have sepia eyes, spineless bristles, and striped body. Assume that the interference between these genes is 0.2 and that 400 progeny flies are produced by the testcross. Based on the map distances provided in Figure , predict the phenotypes and proportions of the progeny resulting from the test cross.
In drosophila, a recessive mutation (m-) of a maternal effect gene results in an abnormal phenotype wherein homozygous (m-m-) females produce eggs that cannot support embryonic development. Homozygous (m-m-) males, however, can still produce viable sperm. Using m+ to denote a normal gene, determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1s produce by a cross between a heterozygous female and a recessive male. From the offspring, backcross the recessive female with the paternal strain. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the F2s? Show COMPLETE cross for both cases. If m-m- females produce useless eggs, then how are m-m- produced?
The genes for mahogany eyes and ebony body are approximately 18 map units apart on chromosome III in Drosophila. Assume that a mahogany-eyed female was mated to an ebony-bodied male, and the resulting F1 phenotypically wild-type females were mated to mahogany-ebony males. Of 942 offspring, what would be the expected phenotypes and in what numbers would they be expected?
