Genes A and B are located 10cM from each other on a chromosome. Gene C is located 25cM from gene A and 15cM from gene B. Assuming that I = 0, what is the probability that the trihybrid ABC/abc will produce an ABC gamete?

Distance between genes A and B = 15 cM
Distance between genes B and C = 10 cM
The probability recombination
Probability of SCO - DCO = 0.25 - 0.015 = 0.235
Probability of non- recombinants = 1 - 0.235 = 0.765
Half of the non recombinants are ABC and the other half are abc. Therefore, the probability that an ABC gamete is produced is 0.5 X 0.765 = 0.3825 or 38.25%
Therefore, the probability of producing ABC gamete is 38.25%

There are three genes located in the gene order A-B-C on a chromosome. Would you expect the recombination frequency to be higher between A and B or A and C?
Explain how the positioning is used to calculate proportion. In Drosophila, genes a and b are located at positions 22.0 and 42.0 on chromosome 2, and genes c and d are located at positions 10.0 and 25.0 on chromosome 3 A fly homozygous for the wild-type alleles of these four genes was crossed with a fly homozygous for the reces- sive alleles, and the F, daughters were backcrossed to their quadruply recessive fathers. What offspring would you expect from this...
31.In humans, the gene for B-globin is located on chromosome 11 and the gene for a globin, which is another component of the hemoglobin protein, is located orn chromosome 16. Would you expect these two chromosomes to pair with each other during meiosis? Why or why not?
The following map indicates the order of three genes (A, B, and C) on a chromosome and the number of map units between adjacent gene pairs. What is the expected frequency of the gametes ABC and abc produced by an individual of genotype AbC//aBc. (Assume no interference.) A---->8 m.u.--->B --->24 m.u.--->C 0 69.92% O 0.96% 06.08% 1.92% 022.1%
Linkage: Consider three genes, each with two alleles. An individual with genotype AAbbDD is crossed with an individual whose genotype is aaBBdd. What are all the gamete types (gamete genotypes) that their offspring (AaBbDd) can produce? Draw chromosome diagrams if it helps you to answer the question. a. If the three genes are unlinked? b. If all three links are tightly linked (no crossing over)? c. If the first two genes are tightly linked (no crossing over), but the third...
BRCAll is a tumor suppressor gene located on chromosome pair 13. Inherited mutations in BRCAII can predispose an individual to breast cancer. If Scarlet carries an inherited mutation for BRCAII and her husband Scott does not, what is the probability that their son inherited the mutated allele?

The phoNY operon is located on a part of the bacterial chromosome in between genes C and D. The DNA looks like: ...A B C -----D E F..... Click 5 Watson The dashed lines represent the structural genes (enzyme encoding) of the phone operon. Mutations that affect the regulation of the phoNY operon have been identified and mapped. Some of the regulatory mutations map near gene D and some map near gene A(asterisks mark approximate locations). No phoNY regulatory mutations...
You have three genes on the same chromosome - A, B and C. Each gene has two alleles in a dominant/recessive relationship. For these genes the homozygous recessive has the mutant phenotype for that trait, the dominant phenotype = wild type for that trait. allele A is dominant to a; phenotype a = mutant for trait a; phenotype A = wild type for trait A allele B is dominant to b; phenotype b = mutant for trait b; phenotype B...
8. The F8 gene is located on the X chromosome. It is used by cells in the liver to produce coagulation factor VIII that is released into the bloodstream where it functions in blood clotting. An inability to produce this protein is a common cause of hemophilia. A woman inherited a null allele (no functional product from her father, and a functional allele from her mother. a. Does this woman produce the coagulation factor? (mark answer with an X) No...
