Consider a maize plant: Genotype C/cm ; Ac/Ac+ where cm is an unstable colorless allele caused by Ds insertion. What phenotypic ratios would be produced and in what proportions when this plant is crossed with a mutant c/c Ac+/Ac+? Assume that the Ac and c loci are unlinked, that the chromosome-breakage frequency is negligible, and the C allele encodes pigment production.

You have already localized the genes to the same chromosome by deletion mapping, and now decide that the best way to accomplish the mapping is to conduct two simultaneous three-point testcross experiments. The genes you are investigating are as follows: N = round leaves, n = notched leaves; H = smooth stems, h = hairy stems; R = purple flowers, r = red flowers; B = grey seeds, b = black seeds; and Y = green pods, y = yellow pods. Earlier experiments you have done already established that gene B is in the middle of this gene cluster, so you design both three-point test crosses to include that gene. Cross #1 is designed as RrHhBb x rrhhbb while cross #2 is NnBbYy x nnbbyy. The results of both crosses are given in the table below. Based on the information given, determine the arrangement of these five genes including the position of each allele in the heterozygous fly and the distances between each pair of genes. (Hint: treat each experiment separately, knowing that gene B is in the…

Consider the first category of test-cross offspring shown in figure 8.2 (+b, LS). Consider also that the parents of the heterozygous female flies in the test cross had the following genotypes: bb, SS, and +, LL. A. What would be the physical phenotype of these flies? B. If PC was conducted with the DNA of one of these flies using the primers for the molecular marker, what would be the appearance of the bands on an electrophoresis gel with the PC products? C. If the gene for black body and the locus for the molecular marker (L long or S short) were unlinked, what proportion of the test-cross progeny would be black flies that are heterozygous for the molecular marker? What proportion would be flies with normal body color, which are homozygous for one form of the molecular marker? D. If the gene for black body and the locus for the molecular marker were linked, how would the proportion of flies be different?
