Step 1
In a dihybrid cross involving two linked genes, the percentage of recombinant gametes indicates the distance between the two genes in map units. In this case, 23 percent of the resulting gametes showed a recombinant genotype, so the two linked genes are 23 map Show more…

Two gene loci, A and B, assort independently, and alleles A and B are dominant over alleles a and b. What is the probability of producing an AB phenotype from cross AaBb x AaBb? 1/4 1/2 1/16 9/16 (100%)

Individuals of genotype $A a B b$ were mated to individuals of genotype $a a b b$. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: $474 \mathrm{Aabb}, 480 \mathrm{aaBb}, 20 \mathrm{AaBb}$ and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map
