4. You have determined that the gene order for three linked genes being studied is A B C. The number of recombinants resulting from crossover between genes A and BC are 44 and 48, respectively, while the double-crossover progeny total 4 and 6. What is the recombination frequency between genes A and B if the total progeny from the cross is 1000? Show all of your work.

Please explain how I can solve this. Thank you You wanted to draw a linkage map for three genes in the fruit fly (A, B, C) that you suspect are linked. You have done a three-point testcross and found that out of the 1500 progeny in the cross, 612 are a · b · c, 603 are A · B · C, 93 are a · B · C, 85 are A · b · c, 53 are a · b · C, 47 are A · B · c, 5 are A · b · C, and 2 are a · B · c. From this data, you can deduce that the genes are linked and the distance between B and C is:

Is it possible to cross two different pure-breedingyellow zucchini strains and obtain all green progeny? What would be the genotypes of the parentsand progeny? f. Assuming that wild-type zucchini are green, howwould you describe the phenomenon that occurredin the F1 of part (e)?
2. The height of a wheat plant is determined by several genes. In a variety the minimum size is 12 inches and the maximum is 24 inches. 12-inch plants were crossed with 18-inch plants, and produced an 18-inch F1. The F1 was allowed to cross each other, and an F2 was obtained in which the 12 and 24 inch plants were obtained with a frequency of 2/8195. How much does each ALELO contribute to the size of the plant? Select one: a. 3 inchesb. 2 inchesc. 1 inch
