In Drosophila, the genes y, f, and v are all X-linked. Females who are homozygous for recessive alleles of all three genes (y f v / y f v) are crossed to wild-type males. The resulting trihybrid F1 females are testcrossed. The F2 are distributed as follows:
-Which of the following linkage maps correctly shows the order and distance between the y, f, and v genes?
A) f--35 m.u.--y--15 m.u.--v
B) f--22 m.u.--y--15 m.u.--v
C) y--35 m.u.--f--22 m.u.--v
D) y--22 m.u.--v--15 m.u.--f
E) y--15 m.u.--v--22 m.u.--f
