a) Draw a genetic map with the map units.
b) In another experiment of 3 genes g h and i, g-h = 8 mu; h-i = 6 mu and g-i = 12.8 mu. Why is there a discrepancy?

In fruit flies, assume bright red eyes (r) and curly wing (w) are encoded by two alleles that are recessive to wild-type alleles (R and W). These two genes are on the same chromosome. A fly homozygous bright red eyes and curly wings is crossed to a homozygous dominant fly. The F1 have a normal eyes and wings. The F1 flies are test crossed to homozygous recessive flies. Wild-type eyes, wild type wing 418 Bright...
Question 5 (14 marks) The allele cn gives fruit flies cinnabar eyes, whereas the allele cn gives red, the wild-type phenotype. The allele wx of a separate allele gives waxy wings, and wx gives non-waxy wings (wild-type). The allele b of a third gene gives fruit flies a black body, whereas the allele b gives a brown (wild-type) body colour. A geneticist knows these three genes are on the same chromosome, but does not know what order the genes are...
16. Use the following information to answer the questions below. Drosophila (fruit flies) usually have long wings (+) but mutations in two different genes can result in bent wings (bt) or vestigial wings (vg). If a homozygous bent wing fly is mated with a homozygous vestigial wing fly, which of the following offspring would you expect? a. 1/2 bent and vestigial to 1/2 normal b. 1/2 bent and 1/2 vestigial flies c. 3/4 bent to 1/4 vestigial ratio d. all...
Drosophila genetics hw. Can someone help explain this
You are doing a genetics experiment with the fruit fly. In the "P" generation, you cross two true-breeding flies. The female parent is brown and wingless and the male parent is black with normal wings. All of the flies in the F1 generation are brown and have normal wings. Indicate the alleles associated with dominant phenotypes by uppercase letters and alleles associated with recessive phenotypes by lowercase letters. Assume the genes are...
You do some further dragon genetic research and find the following Fire breathing (Fb) and the ability to fly (Fl) are 20 map units apart Fire breathing and Green eyes (G) are 3 map units apart The ability to fly and long tail (T) are 7 map units apart Green eyes and long tail are 10 map units apart recessive alleles fb cannot breath fire g blue eyes f can not fly t short tail Based on this information, the...
