In a diploid plant species, an F1 with the genotype Mm Rr Ss is test crossed to a pure breeding recessive plant with the genotype mm rr ss. The offspring genotypes are as follows: Genotype Number Mm Rr Ss 687 Mm Rr ss 5 Mm rr Ss 68 Mm rr ss 196 mm Rr Ss 185 mm Rr ss 72 mm rr Ss 8 mm rr ss 679 Total 1900 1. Why is the recombination frequency for the outside pair of genes not equal to the sum of the recombination between the adjacent gene pairs?
I am trying to understand how linkage works, and I am hoping someone can explain how to solve the following problem: The diagram shows the linkage maps for four genes: A, B, C, and D. Which genes are most likely to undergo recombination? Which genes are least likely to recombine? A.) A and D B.) C and D C.) B and C
Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these locilinked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?
In a particular organism, the A locus and the D locus are so tightly linked that no crossing over is ever observed between them. If an AADD individual is crossed to an aadd individual, what types of gametes will their double-heterozygote F1 offspring produce and in what proportions? Group of answer choices 25% parental and 75% recombinant gametes 75% parental and 25% recombinant gametes 100% parental and 0% recombinant gametes 50% parental and 50% recombinant gametes 0% parental and 100% recombinant gametes
Hemophilia and color blindness are both recessive conditions caused by genes on the X chromosome. To calculate the recombination frequency between the two genes, you draw a large number of pedigrees that include grandfathers with both hemophilia and color blindness, their daughters (who presumably have one chromosome with two normal alleles and one chromosome with two mutant alleles), and the daughters sons. Analyzing all the pedigrees together shows that 25 grandsons have both color blindness and hemophilia, 24 have neither of the traits, 1 has color blindness only, and 1 has hemophilia only. How many centimorgans (map units) separate the hemophilia locus from the locus for color blindness?
Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
In a series of two-point map crosses involving five genes locatedon chromosome II in Drosophila, the following recombinant (single- crossover) frequencies were observed:pr–adp 29pr–vg 13pr–c 21pr–b 6adp–b 35adp–c 8adp–vg 16vg–b 19vg–c 8c–b 27 In another set of experiments, a sixth gene (d) was testedagainst b and pr, and the results were d - b = 17% andd - pr = 23%. Predict the results of two-point mapsbetween d and c, d and vg, and d and adp.
In the 1st image, are all gametes viable since they are parental crossovers? Also, in the 2nd image, are all gametes inviable since they are recombinant crossovers?
A homozygous tomato plant with orange fruit and white flowers was crossed with a homozygous tomato plant with red fruit and red flowers. The F1 all had orange fruit and white flowers. The F1 were testcrossed by crossing them to homozygous recessive individuals and the following offspring were obtained: Orange fruit and white flowers- 64 Red fruit and red flowers- 69 Orange fruit and red flowers- 14 Red fruit and white flowers- 13 What is the recombination frequency of these two genes?
