Practice question
Question
Wild-type Drosophila females having three linked genes (AABBCC) were crossed with triple recessive mutant (aabbcc) males. The F1 female progenies (AaBbCc) were back crossed with the triple negative mutant (aabbcc) males. The cross resulted in following number of progenies in F2 : The order of genes as determined from the above data was found to be “ABC” (note that the order is equivalent to “CBA” and the order outside the markers are arbitrary). The recombination map distance (in centi Morgan) between “A to C” is ______ (round off to one decimal place). (NAT)
Explanation
Mendelian segregation analysis shows allele distribution and recombination generate phenotypic variation. Consequently Option NAT emerges as the valid choice since it follows segregation and linkage principles, aligning with established principles in genetics literature.
