An Experiment Was Done to Determine the Linkage Relationship of Three

Question 42

Essay

An experiment was done to determine the linkage relationship of three genes (a,b,and c)in Drosophila melanogaster.Homozygous females phenotypically a,c were crossed with homozygous males phenotypically b.The F1 females were all wild type in appearance,and the F1 males were all a,c.The F1 females and males were crossed to give the following F2 phenotypes and numbers.
\quad \quad \quad \quad \quad  Number of \text { Number of }
 Males  Females a+c242310+b+2380ab+1570++c163190abc590+++61295a++38205+bc420 Total 1,0001,000\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}\hline &\text { Males } & \text { Females }\\\hline a+c & 242 & 310 \\\hline+b+ & 238 & 0 \\\hline a b+ & 157 & 0 \\\hline++c & 163 & 190 \\\hline a b c & 59 & 0 \\\hline+++ & 61 & 295 \\\hline a++ & 38 & 205 \\\hline+b c & 42 & 0 \\\hline \text { Total } & 1,000 & 1,000 \\\hline\end{array}
a)Give the genotypes of the parents.
b)Give the genotypes of the F1 flies,and show the genotypic arrangement in the female F1.
c)Draw a genetic map showing the order of the genes and the distances between them.
d)Calculate the interference (only if necessary;if not,say "I = 0").
