Two phenotypically wild-type Drosophila (with long wings and red eyes) are crossed, and two mutant phenotypes (curved wings and lozenge eyes) are seen to segregate among the progeny as follows:
Females:
900 long wing, red eyes
300 curved wing, red eyes
Males:
450 long wing, red eyes
450 long wing, lozenge eyes
150 curved wing, red eyes
150 curved wing, lozenge eyes
propose a genetic model for the two traits and determine the genotypes of the two wild-type parents
Let L be the depiction for Long wings and l be the depiction for curved wings, let XR be the depiction for red eyes and Xr be the depiction for lozenge eyes.
The genotypes of parents are long wing, red eyes--LlXR Y (male parent) X Ll XRXr.( female parent).
The Punnett square model for the formation of progeny will be---
| cross | LXR | lXR | LY | lY |
| LXR | LLXRXR (long wing, red eye female) | LlXRXR( long wing,red eye female) | LLXRY(long wing, red eye male) | LlXRY(long wing, red eye male) |
| LXr | LLXRXr ( long wing, red eye female) | LlXRXr ( long wing, red eye female) | LLXrY(long wing, lozenge eye male) | LlXrY( long wing, lozenge eye male) |
| lXR | LlXRXR ( long wing, red eye female) | llXRXR ( curved wing, red eye female) | LlXRY( long wing, red eye male) | IlXRY( curved wing, red eye male) |
| lXr | LlXRXr ( long wing, red eye female) | llXRXr ( curved wing, red eye female) | LlXrY ( long wing, lozenge eye male) | llXrY( curved wing, lozenge eye male). |
Curved wing allele is autosomal recessive trait and lozenge eye allele is sex-linked recessive trait. Long wing is a dominant trait and red eye is a dominant trait in drosophila.

39. You have crossed two fruit fly individuals that have long wings and red eyes - the wild-type phenotype. In the progeny, the mutant phenotypes called curved wings and lozenge eyes appear as follows: Females 600 long-wing, red eyes 200 curved wing, red eyes Males 300 long-wing red eyes 300 long-wing, lozenge eyes 100 curved wing, red eyes 100 curved wing, lozenge eyes According to these data, the lozenge eye allele is A. sex-linked dominant B. sex-linked recessive C. autosomal...

A female fruit fly with vermilion eyes and normal wings is crossed to a male with normal red eyes and cut wings. The F1 progeny consist of females with red eyes and normal wings, and males with vermilion eyes and normal wings. When the F1 progeny are interbred, the F2 consists of two types of females vermilion eyes, normal wings (1/2) and red eyes, normal wings (12), and two types of males-vermilion eyes, normal wings (12) and red eyes, cut...
Ruby Eyes, Curved Wings, Males 124 Curved Wings, Males 127 Wild Type, Females 825 Wild Type, Males 412 Ruby Eyes, Males 418 Curved Wings, Females 261 Conduct a Chi-Square Test. Please state the mode of inheritance for both the curved wing allele and the ruby eyes allele. Also, would we need to do the test separately for males and separately for females? Thanks :) Edit: I'm not sure what genetic ratios to use to get the observed values as I...
Data Set: Ruby eyes, curved wings, males - 124 Curved wings, males - 127 wild type, females - 825 wild type, males - 412 Ruby eyes, males - 418 Curved wings, females - 261 Conduct a chi-square test, ensuring to include genetic symbols and genetics hypothesis for the genes. Im not sure where to start or how to determine the P, F1 and F2 generations. Thank you for your help in advance!
Normal eye color in flies is red. Mutant flies have brown eye color. Similarly, normal wing length is long. Mutant flies have short wings. A female true breeding fly with brown eyes and short wings is crossed with a true breeding male with red eyes and long wings. In the F1 the female flies are red eyed and long winged. The male flies are red eyed and short winged. F1 males are crossed to F1 females Both sexes of F2...
2. A truebreeding female Drosophila with little wings (lw/lw) and red eyes (pr+/pr+) was crossed to a male with normal wings (lw+/lw+) and purple eyes (pr/pr). All of the F1 appeared wild type. A testcross was done with an F1 female and a tester male. The following data was from the testcross. Fill in the table below.

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...
4. There are three genes on the X-chromosome in drosophila, yellow (y), white (w), and cut (ct). A yellow-bodied, white-eyed, and a homozygous normal winged female fly was crossed to a male with wild type body, wild type eyes, and cut wings. The Fi females were wild type for all three traits, while the Fi males had yellow bodies, white eyes, normal wings. The Fi females were crossed to yellow bodied, white eyed, cut wing males. The resulting F2 progeny...
In Drosophila, the autosomal recessive traits for dumpy wings (dp) and cinnabar eyes (cn) are found on chromosome 2, separated by 44 map units. The allele for shaven bristles (sv) is found on chromosome 4 and is also recessive. A female with shaven. bristles is crossed to a male expressing dumpy wings and cinnabar eyes. FI females are test-crossed to males expressing all three traits. 3. What proportion of F2 flies (of either sex) will be completely wild type? a....
