Question
Chapter 17.4, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The crosses between fruit flies that could yield female offspring with white eyes.
Introduction: Morgan's experiment explains the process of linkage and recombination. The linkage phenomenon is defined as the transfer of two closely situated or linked genes to pass on to the next generation. Higher the linkage, lesser is the recombination frequency. This is because closely linked genes will always be inherited together.
