5. Homozygous black-colored (BB), wavy-haired (HH), with short coat (SS) female minks were mated with homozygous white-colored (bb), straight-haired (hh) and with long coat (ss) males. F1 females produced from the above cross were testcrossed with the white-colored, straight-haired, long-haired males:

Black, straight, long 42

White, wavy, short 38

Black, straight, short 7

Black, wavy, short 348

White, wavy, long 9

White, straight, long 356

Calculate the gene distance and construct the genetic map.
Question did not indicate if it was a 2 point or 3 point cross.

Expert Solution

In this case NO double crossover occurs.

I am providing a whole method by which I decode this.

If you have any problem than ask in comment.

In a population of rats, the homozygous genotype BB produces black coat color, Bb produces gray coat color, and bb produces white coat color. When the population is surveyed, you find that there are 60 black rats and 40 gray rats, and no rats with white coats. A. What are the gene frequencies for the B and b alleles in this population? B. If this rat population randomly mates, what are the expected ratios of black, gray, and white rats...
