Answer #1

Answer:

c. Y---2---X----38----Z

Explanation:

Hint: Non-recombinant (parental) combinations are produced more in number than recombinants. The parental (non-recombinant) genotypes is XY+/++Z

1).

If single crossover occurs between X&Y

Normal combination: XY/++

After crossover: X+/+Y

X+ progeny=10

+Y progeny = 0

Total this progeny = 10

Total progeny = 500

The recombination frequency between X&Y = (number of recombinants/Total progeny) 100

RF = (10/500)100 = 2%

2).

If single crossover occurs between Y&Z

Normal combination: Y+/+Z

After crossover: YZ/++

YZ progeny= 100

++ progeny = 90+10=100

Total this progeny = 200

The recombination frequency between Y&Z = (number of recombinants/Total progeny) 100

RF = (200/500)100 = 40%

3).

If single crossover occurs between X&Z

Normal combination: X+/+Z

After crossover: XZ/++

XZ progeny=100

++ progeny = 90

Total this progeny = 190

Total progeny = 500

The recombination frequency between X&Z= (number of recombinants/Total progeny) 100

RF = (190/500)100 = 38%

Recombination frequency (%) = Distance between the genes (mu)

Y--------2mu------X----38mu----Z

The order of genes = Y---X---Z
