In Drosophila, the gene loci for curved wings and purple eyes are 20 centimorgans (map units) apart from each other on an autosomal chromosome. Wild-type flies were mated with double mutant flies with cv cv p'p genotypes and curved wing/purple eye phenotypes. All of the F1 flies had wild type phenotypes. The F1 flies were crossed with double mutant flies with cv cv p'p" genotypes and curved wing/purple eye phenotypes. What are the predicted percentages of flies in the F2 generation with wild type wings and eyes, curved wings and wild type eyes, wild type wings and purple eyes, and curved wings and purple eyes?

Familial retinoblastoma, a rare autosomal dominant defect, arose in a large family that had no prior history of the disease. Consider the following pedigree (the darkly colored symbols represent affected individuals): a. Circle the individual(s) in which the mutation most likely occurred. b. Is the person who is the source of the mutation affected by retinoblastoma? Justify your answer. c. Assuming that the mutant allele is fully penetrant, what is the chance that an affected individual will have an affected child?
In Drosophila, a cross (cross 1) was made between twomutant flies, one homozygous for the recessive mutationbent wing (b) and the other homozygous for the recessivemutation eyeless (e). The mutations e and b are alleles oftwo different genes that are known to be very closelylinked on the tiny autosomal chromosome 4. All the progeny had a wild-type phenotype. One of the female progeny was crossed with a male of genotype b e/b e ; we willcall this cross 2. Most of the progeny of cross 2 were of theexpected types, but there was also one rare female ofwild-type phenotype.a. Explain what the common progeny are expected tobe from cross 2.b. Could the rare wild-type female have arisen by (1)crossing over or (2) nondisjunction? Explain.
a. In Drosophila, crosses between F1 heterozygotes ofthe form A b / a B always yield the same ratio ofphenotypes in the F2 progeny regardless of the distance between the two genes (assuming completedominance for both autosomal genes). What is thisratio? Would this also be the case if the F1 heterozygotes were A B / a b? (Hint: Remember that inDrosophila, recombination does not take placeduring spermatogenesis.)b. If you intercrossed F1 heterozygotes of the formA b / a B in mice, the phenotypic ratio among the F2progeny would vary with the map distance betweenthe two genes. Is there a simple way to estimate themap distance based on the frequencies of the F2phenotypes, assuming rates of recombination areequal in males and females? Could you estimatemap distances in the same way if the mouse F1heterozygotes were A B / a b?
Miniature wings in Drosophila result from an X-linked allele (Xm) that is recessive to the allele for long wings (X+). Sepia eyes are produced by an autosomal allele (s) that is recessive to an allele for red eyes (s+). a. A female fly that has miniature wings and sepia eyes is crossed with a male that has normal wings and is homozygous for red eyes. The F1 flies are intercrossed to produce the F2. Give the phenotypes, as well as their expected proportions, of the F1 and F2 flies. b. A female fly that is homozygous for normal wings and has sepia eyes is crossed with a male that has miniature wings and is homozygous for red eyes. The F1 flies are intercrossed to produce the F2. Give the phenotypes, as well as their expected proportions, of the F1 and F2 flies.
In Drosophila, an autosomal gene determines the shape of the hair, with B giving straight and b giving bent hairs. On another autosome, there is a gene of which a dominant allele I inhibits hair formation so that the fly is hairless (i has no known phenotypic effect).a. If a straight-haired fly from a pure line is crossed with a fly from a pure-breeding hairless line known to be an inhibited bent genotype, what will the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 and the F2 be?b. What cross would give the ratio 4 hairless:3 straight:1 bent?

In Drosophila, a cross was made between females expressing thethree X-linked recessive traits, scute bristles (sc), sable body (s),and vermilion eyes (v), and wild-type males. All females were wildtype in the F1, while all males expressed all three mutant traits.The cross was carried to the F2 generation and 1000 offspringwere counted, with the results shown in the following table. Nodetermination of sex was made in the F2 data. Question:Calculate the coefficient of coincidence; does this represent positive or negative interference?

The recessive, X-linked z1mutation of the Drosophilagene zeste (z) can produce a yellow (zeste) eye coloronly in flies that have two or more copies of the wildtype white (w) gene. Using this property, tandem duplications of the w+ gene called w+Rwere identified.Males with the genotype y+ z1w+R spl+ / Y thus havezeste eyes. These males were crossed to females withthe genotype y z1 w+R spl / y+ z1 w+R spl+. (These fourgenes are closely linked on the X chromosome, in theorder given in the genotype, with the centromere tothe right of all these genes: y = yellow bodies; y+ =tan bodies; spl = split bristles; spl+ = normal bristles.) Out of 81,540 male progeny of these females,the following exceptions were found:Class A 2430 yellow bodies, zeste eyes, wild-type bristlesClass B 2394 tan bodies, zeste eyes, split bristlesClass C 23 yellow bodies, wild-type eyes, wild-type bristlesClass D 22 tan bodies, wild-type eyes, split bristlesa. What were the phenotypes of the remainder of the81,540 males…

Another cross in Drosophila involved the recessive, X-linked genes yellow (y), white (w), and cut (ct). A yellow-bodied, white-eyed female with normal wings was crossed to a male whose eyes and body were normal but whose wings were cut. The F1 females were wild type for all three traits, while the F1 males expressed the yellow-body and white-eye traits. The cross was carried to an F2 progeny, and only male offspring were tallied. On the basis of the data shown here, a genetic map was constructed.

In Drosophila melanogaster, ebony body color is determined by the e allele. The e+ allele produces the wild-typehoney-colored body. In heterozygotes, the body is honey-colored except for a dark marking called the trident seen on the thorax. The e+ allele is thus considered to be incompletely dominant to the e allele.a. When female e+ e+ flies are crossed to male e+ e flies, what is the probability that progeny will have the tridentmarking? Animals with the marking mate among themselves. Of 100 progeny, how many would be expected to have a trident, how many would have ebony bodies, and how many would have honey-colored bodies?
