1. (4) A true breeding strain (S1) of guinea pig has dominant alleles for fur texture (R), fur colour (C), and hair length (L). Another strain (S2) is homozygous for the recessive alleles of all three genes. The three genes are linked and arranged on the chromosome as follows: R--------7 m.u. -------C----------------------18 m.u.-----------------L The F1 trihybrid between the two strains is backcrossed to strain S2. Assume that there is no interference. A) What proportion of the backcrossed progeny will resemble...
5. (5) You are working with a farmer who has two varieties of true-breeding corn plants. The Durham variety has dominant alleles for short stature (S), yellow leaf colour (Y) and crinkled leaves (C). The UOIT variety has the recessive alleles for all three genes, tall stature (s), green leaf colour v),and smooth leaves (c). The farmer has mapped the genes and tells you that they are linked as shown below: 7 m.u 18 m.u The farmer has produced an...
