Chapter 3, Problem 19P
Four eye-color mutants in Drosophila—apricot, brown, carnation, and purple—are inherited as recessive traits. Red is the dominant wild-type color of fruit-fly eyes. Eight crosses (A through H) are made between parents from pure-breeding lines.
a. Which of these eye-color mutants are X-linked recessive and which are autosomal recessive? Explain how you distinguish X-linked from autosomal heredity.
b. Predict F2

In Drosophila, an X-linked recessive mutation, Xm causes miniature wings. List the F2 phenotypic ratios if:
a miniature-winged female is crossed with a normal male and
a miniature-winged male is crossed with a normal female.
What would the phenotypic ratio from (a) be if the miniature-winged gene were autosomal? Assume in all cases that the P1 individuals are true-breeding.
Vermilion eye color in Drosophila is sex-linked and recessive. What would be the phenotypes of maleand female progenies of a cross between a vermilion female and wild-type (red) male?

- The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, an autosomal gene determines the shape of the hair, with B giving straight and b giving bent hairs. On another autosome, there is a gene of which a dominant allele I inhibits hair formation so that the fly is hairless (i has no known phenotypic effect).a. If a straight-haired fly from a pure line is crossed with a fly from a pure-breeding hairless line known to be an inhibited bent genotype, what will the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 and the F2 be?b.
