In tomatoes, spherical fruit shape is dominant to oblate, and tall is dominant to dwarf. o = oblate, O = spherical d = dwarf, D = tall A true-breeding oblate, tall strain is crossed to a true-breeding spherical, dwarf strain. The F1 generation is testcrossed to a true-breeding oblate, dwarf strain. 1,000 testcross progeny are produced as follows: 420 spherical, dwarf

100 spherical, tall

110 oblate, dwarf

370 oblate, tall

What is the genetic map distance between the two genes?
