In Drosophila, the autosomal recessive brown eye color mutation (b) displays interactions with both the X-linked recessive vermilion mutation (v) and the autosomal recessive scarlet (s) mutation. Flies homozygous for brown and simultaneously hemizygous or homozygous for vermilion have white eyes. Flies simultaneously homozygous for both the brown and scarlet mutations also have white eyes. Flies that are wildtype at all 3 loci have wildtype eye color. Flies that are homozygous or hemizygous for the recessive mutant at only one locus show that mutations color. (i.e. brown, vermillion or scarlet). Use this information to answer the next 4 questions.

In Drosophila, the X-linked recessive mutation vermilion (XV) causes bright red eyes, in contrast to the brick-red eyes of wild type (X+). Part A separate autosomal recessive mutation (br), causes the eyes to be brown. Predict the F1 results of the following cross: normal females x white males. (Assume that the parents are homozygous.) Flies carrying both mutations lose all pigmentation and are white-eyed. Label the diagram by dragging the labels to the appropriate targets. Note: not all labels will...
In Drosophila, the X-linked recessive mutation vermillion (v) causes bright red eyes, in contrast to the brick-red eyes caused by the wild-type allele. A separate autosomal recessive mutation, brown (bw), causes flies to have brown eyes. Flies carrying both mutations have no eye pigmentation and are white-eyed. Determine the F1 and F2 phenotypic ratios for each sex from the following crosses: (a) brown females X vermillion males (b) white-eyed females X wild-type males
You cross a Drosophila female with kidney-shaped and brown eyes with a male that has wildtype eye shape and color. Kidney-shaped eyes are found in females that are heterozygous for the bar eyed mutation. Bar eyed females are homozygous for the bar eyed mutant allele, whereas bar eyed males are hemizygous for the mutation. Brown eyes are an autosomal recessive mutation. Attention: Half of the resulting F1 has brown eyes! [...
Question 3. The vermillion mutation in flies is X-linked, while the brown mutation is autosomal. Which of the following phenotypes will be observed in the Fl progeny from a cross between a vermillion-eyed female and a brown-eyed male? Option F1 daughters F1 sons Wild type Brown Wild type Vermillion c) Wild type Wild type (d) Brown Vermillion Vermillion Brown Question 6. DEFICIENCY MAPPING VIA COMPLEMENTATION In two mutagenesis experiments, one in which saturation mutagenesis was used with EMS and the...
You cross a Drosophila female with kidney-shaped and brown eyes with a male that has wildtype eye shape and color. Kidney-shaped eyes are found in females that are heterozygous for the bar eyed mutation. Bar eyed females are homozygous for the bar eyed mutant allele, whereas bar eyed males are hemizygous for the mutation. Brown eyes are an autosomal recessive mutation. Attention: Half of the resulting F1 has brown eyes! Would you expect to see bar eyed females in the...

i got this wrong and am curious why. thanks! You cross a Drosophila female with kidney-shaped and brown eyes with a male that has wildtype eye shape and color. Kidney-shaped eyes are found in females that are heterozygous for the bar eyed mutation. Bar eyed females are homozygous for the bar eyed mutant allele, whereas bar eyed males are hemizygous for the mutation. Brown eyes are an autosomal recessive mutation. Attention: Half of the resulting F1 has brown eyes! 1/4...
A mutation in the Drosophila bristle gene (fb) (which is X-chromosome linked) causes a recessive forked bristle phenotype (rather than the normal type of bristle). Another mutation in Drosophila autosomal body color gene (BR) causes a recessive brown color body (rather than the normal black body). A geneticist carried out the following cross: X+ / Y ; BR/br x X+/ Xfb ; BR/br If total of 240 F1 progeny were obtained, the “expected” numbers are: normal bristle male progeny -...
Scalloped (sd) wing is an X-linked recessive and ebony (e) body color is an autosomal recessive mutation in Drosophila. If a true breeding scalloped female that is wild type for ebony, is mated with a true breeding ebony male that is wild type for scolloped, what proportion of scalloped, normal body colored males is expected in the F2? a. 0 b. 1/16 c. 3/16 d. 1/32 e. 1/8
the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, an allele (v) of the gene vermillion gives flies purple eyes and is recessive to the wildtype red eye color (v+). An allele y of the yellow gene, gives flies a yellow body color compared to the dominant brown body color (yt). A heterozygous females for the two different mutations is test-crossed with mutant (i.e., homozygous recessive) males. The phenotypes of the progeny of this cross and their corresponding numbers are given below Yellow body,...
