Assume that investigators crossed a strain of flies carrying the dominant eye mutation Lobe on the second chromosome with a strain homozygous for the second chromosome recessive mutations smooth abdomen and straw body.The F1 Lobe females were then backcrossed with homozygous smooth abdomen,straw-body males,and the following phenotypes were observed:
smooth abdomen,straw body 820
Lobe 780
smooth abdomen,Lobe 42
straw body 58
smooth abdomen 148
Lobe,straw body 152
