In one of Mendel’s dihybrid crosses, he observed315 round, yellow; 108 round, green; 101 wrinkled,yellow; and 32 wrinkled, green F2 plants. Analyze thesedata using the x2 test to see if(a) they fit a 9:3:3:1 ratio.(b) the round:wrinkled data fit a 3:1 ratio.(c) the yellow:green data fit a 3:1 ratio.
Two pure-breeding parents produced a heterozygous female offspring (AaBb) that was then testcrossed with an aabb male. The offspring produced from the testcross included 50 AaBb, 450 Aabb, 450 aaBb, 50 aabb individuals. Describe how you can tell if these two genes are linked or unlinked (What ratio would you expect to see from the testcross if they were not linked?). What were the genotypes of the original parents that produced the heterozygous female? What is the genetic map distance between the two genes?
Assume performing only one cross, which produced 274 flies, which consisted of 193 wild-type flies and 81 white-eyed flies. (a) Based upon this information, what is the most likely genotype of the female parent? (b) How to confirm the above answer with only the result from this one cross?
