A homozygous wild-type female was crossed to a reduced, cinnabar male, and the F1 females were then crossed with cinnabar reduced males to obtain the F2.

- You are given a Drosophila female that looks wild-type but is heterozygous for mutations intan body (t), miniature wings (m), and white eyes (w).

Draw a linear map with thedistances between genes.Please explain how you do this question step by step I am very confused! thank you:) You have three independent mutant alleles in the Drosophila gene no-antenna: nan1, nan2 and nan3. You determine the phenotype of Drosophila that are heterozygous for the three alleles (heterozygous for a wild-type allele and a mutant allele), and that are homozygous for the three mutant alleles. The antenna is composed of three segments that are followed at the distal end by a feathery arista (that is the antenna is composed of three segments and an arista). Allele nan1 nan2 nan3 heterozygous Wild-type No arista Wild-type homozygous No arista No antenna No antenna nan1 is a __x__ allele, nan2 is a __y__ allele, and nan3 is a __z__ allele.

- In Drosophila, a female fly is heterozygous for three mutations, Bareyes (B), miniature wings (m), and ebony body (e). Note that Bar isa dominant mutation. The fly is crossed to a male with normal eyes,miniature wings, and ebony body. The results of the cross are asfollows.111 miniature29 wild type117 Bar26 Bar, mimatue101 Bar, ebony31 Bar, miniature, ebony35 ebony115 miniature, ebonyInterpret the results of this cross. If you conclude that linkage isinvolved between any of the genes, determine that map distance(sbetween them.In Drosophila, the genes st (scarlet eyes), ss (spineless bris- tles), and e (ebony body) are located on chromosome 3, with map positions as indicated: st SS e 44 58 70 Each of these mutations is recessive to its wild-type allele (st*, dark red eyes; ss*, smooth bristles; e*, gray body). Phenotypically wild-type females with the genotype st ss e*/st* st* ss+ e were crossed with triply recessive males. Predict the phenotypes of the progeny and the frequen- cies with which they will occur assuming (a) no interfer- ence and (b) complete interference.Given the following alleles that control the traits of Drosophila melanogaster:R = red eyes L = long wings B = brown bodyr = sepia eyes l = vestigial wings b = black body A testcross between a triple heterozygous parent and a recessive parent revealed the followingexpressed alleles: 55 sepia long brown 8 sepial long black187 sepia vestigial black 1 sepia vestigial brown43 red vestigial black 196 red long brown2 red long black 9 red vestigial brown Determine the order of the loci and the distance between them in centimorgan (cM).
