J6. Females heterozygous for three genes ABC/abc (in this order) are testcrossed to males carrying only recessive alleles (abc/abc). In a cross producing 1,000 progeny, how many double crossover progeny (AbC/abc and aBc/abc) will be obtained if the map distance between A and B is 15cM, the map distance between B and C is 10cM and the coefficient of coincidence is 0.4? A. 6 B. 15 C. 400 D. 0 E. 25
