In Drosophila melanogaster, red eyes are dominant over white and the variation for this characteristic is on the X chromosome. Vestigial wings (v) are recessive to normal (V) for an autosomal gene. Predict the appearance of offspring of the following crosses: XW/XwV/v×Xw/Y v/v, Xw/XwV/v×XW/Y V/v.
In Drosophila melanogaster, white eyes (w) is an X-linked recessive mutation.
Normal eyes are red (W). At the autosomal wing shape locus, normal shaped
wings (Vg) are dominant to vestigial wings (vg). The following cross was made:
XWXW Vgvg x XWY Vgvg
What proportion of the progeny from this cross will be males with white eyes
and normal wings? Write your answer as a numerical value rounded properly to 4
decimal digits. Do not write the answer as a fraction or percentage.
A mutant sex-linked trait called “notched” (N) is deadly in Drosophila when homozygous in females. Males who have a single N allele will also die. The heterozygous condition (Nn) causes small notches on the wing. The normal condition in both male and females is represented by the allele n.
a) Indicate the phenotypes of the F1 generation from the following cross: XNXn x XnY
b) Explain why dead females are never found in the F1 generation no matter which parents are crossed.
c) Explain why the mating of female XNXn and a male XNy is unlikely.

- In Drosophila melanogaster, white eyes (w) is an X-linked recessive mutation. Normal eyes are red (W). At the autosomal wing shape locus, normal shaped wings (Vg) are dominant to vestigial wings (vg). The following cross was made: X"XW Vgvg x XWY Vgvg What proportion of the progeny from this cross will be males with red eyes and normal wings? Write your answer as a numerical value rounded properly to 4 decimal digits. Do not write the answer as a fraction or percentage. Answer:arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the white gene located on the X chromosome affects eye color; an autosomal gene, wingless, is on an autosomal chromosome. Use the following allele symbols: Xw+ _ , Xw+Y = wild type red eyes; X-linked dominant allele Xw Xw , XwY = white eyes; X-linked recessive allele Y = Y sex chromosome vg+ = wild type wings; autosomal dominant vg = wingless; autosomal recessive Predict ratios/proportions of genotypes and phenotypes of offspring from the following cross, of a white-eyed male with wild type wings and a wild type red eyed female with wild type wings: indicate sex of offspring along with phenotypes.

The wild type alleles (sn+ and ct+) are responsible for straight bristles and intact wings, respectively. A female homozygous for sn+ and ct+ is crossed to a sn ct male. The F1 flies are interbred.

In Drosophila, crosses between F1 heterozygotes ofthe form A b / a B always yield the same ratio ofphenotypes in the F2 progeny regardless of the distance between the two genes (assuming completedominance for both autosomal genes). What is thisratio? Would this also be the case if the F1 heterozygotes were A B / a b? (Hint: Remember that inDrosophila, recombination does not take placeduring spermatogenesis.)b. If you intercrossed F1 heterozygotes of the formA b / a B in mice, the phenotypic ratio among the F2progeny would vary with the map distance betweenthe two genes. Is there a simple way to estimate themap distance based on the frequencies of the F2phenotypes, assuming rates of recombination areequal in males and females? Could you estimatemap distances in the same way if the mouse F1heterozygotes were A B / a b?arrow_forward
