Textbook Question
Chapter 15, Problem 9TYU
You design Drosophila crosses to provide recombination data for gene a, which is located on the chromosome shown in Figure 15.12. Gene a has recombination frequencies of 14% with the vestigial wing locus and 26% with the brown eye locus. Approximately where is a located along the chromosome?

The genetic map was based on crosses in Drosophila involving the three sex-linked genes a, b and c. “a” gives red eyes, “b” gives normal wings and “c” gives black body. The recombination frequencies between these genes are as follows; a and b is 23.8, b and c is 2.6 and a and c is 28.1, respectively. Could you draw a basic genetic map based on distance between these genes using dots to show distance(s)? Could you make one fundamental comment using these distances based on genetic linkage?
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
If the adp gene is present near the end of chromosome II(locus 83), construct a map of these genes.

- To determine the recombination frequency between body color and wing genes in flies, you perform several crosses where you cross an F1 having red body and smooth wings with a yellow-bodied, crinkle-winged fly. You get the following results. What is the distance between the genes for body color and wing surface in map units?arrow_forwardThe genes dumpy wings (dp), clot eyes (cl), and apterous wings (ap) are linked on chromosome II of Drosophila. In a series of two-point mapping crosses, the genetic distances shown below were determined. What is the sequence of the three genes? dp–ap 42 dp–cl 3 ap–cl 39arrow_forwardIn a mutant screen in Drosophila, you identified a gene related to memory, as evidenced by the inability of recessive homozygotes to learn to associate a particular scent with the availability of food. Given another line of flies with an autosomal mutation that produces orange eyes, design a series of crosses to determine the map distance between these two loci. You do not need to calculate recombination frequency.arrow_forward

- In an autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. d.
