1. The slash (/) in a linkage phase diagram indeed separates alleles inherited from different parents, indicating which alleles are on the chromosomes inherited from each parent. 2. The alleles on the left and right of the slash represent the genotype on different homologous chromosomes, showing the alleles present on each of the two chromosomes in a diploid organism. 3. The genotype R l / r L is in repulsion phase because the two dominant alleles (R and L) are on different chromosomes, as are the two recessive alleles (l and r), indicating a repulsion or trans configuration.
