Chapter 5, Problem 9P

Genes A, B, C, D, and E are linked on a chromosomeand occur in the order given. The test cross Ae/aE*ae/ae indicates the genes recombine with a frequency of 28% .

a. If 1000 progeny are produced by the test cross, determine the number of progeny in each outcome class.

b. Previous genetic linkage crosses have determined that recombination frequencies for these genes are 6% for genes A and B, 4% for genes B and C, 10% for genes C and D, and 11% for genes D and E. The sum of these frequenciesbetween genes A and E is 31% . Why does the recombination distance between these genes, determined by adding

You breed two monster parents (green, hairless) GGhh and ggHH (white, hairy) to produce F1 offspring (green, hairy). Genes G and H are on the same chromosome.  a. What are the dominant phenotypes?  b. What are ALL of the potential gamete genotypes that could be created by an F1? Clearly indicate the recombinant genotypes.  c. Explain how recombinants are created. d. What are the potential offspring genotypes from the cross of a F1 monster with a homozygous recessive monster.  e. From this test cross you get 152 green, hairless; 23 green, hairy; 148 white, hairy, and 27 white, hairless. Calculate the chi squared to test the independent assortment hypothesis and determine if these genes assort independently.
Fruit flies can have straight wings (S) or curly wings (s), and they can have be female XX or male XY. (A) For a standard monohybrid cross (Ss ´ Ss), what proportion of the offspring will have the genotype ss? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction) (B) For the following cross (SsXX ´ SsXY), what proportion of the offspring will have the genotype Ss? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction) (C) What proportion will have the genotype XX? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction) (D) What proportion will have the genotype SsXX? (Express the proportion as a simple fraction)SHOW YOUR WORK
CC DD and cc dd individuals were crossed to eachother, and the F1 generation was backcrossed to thecc dd parent. 997 Cc Dd, 999 cc dd, 1 Cc dd, and 3 ccDd offspring resulted.a. How far apart are the c and d loci?b. What progeny and in what frequencies would youexpect to result from testcrossing the F1 generationfrom a CC dd × cc DD cross to cc dd?c. In a typical meiosis, how many crossovers occurbetween genes C and D?d. Assume that the C and D loci are on the samechromosome, but the offspring from the testcrossdescribed in part (b) were 498 Cc Dd, 502 cc dd,504 Cc dd, and 496 cc Dd. How would your answer to part (c) change?
