Solutions For An Introduction to Genetic Analysis Chapter 17 Problem 10P

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution 1

The process of mapping mutant alleles by pseudodominance is shown in the following map:

Picture 2

According to the above map, when we consider the fa allele, we cross it with different deletions to see if pseudodominance is seen. When the fa allele is crossed with deletion 264-32, pseudodominance is seen.

According to the above map, the fa allele shows pseudodominance with all the deletions except two. The deletions which do not show the pseudodominance of fa allele are:

• 258-11

• 258-14
