Question
what locus is in the center?
a.fruit color
b.unable to determine
c.time to fruit
d. tendril size
Three linked autosomal loci were studied in cucumbers: fruit color (dark vs. light), tendril size (long vs. reduced) and fruiting (normal vs. early). Pure breeding early fruiting light cucumbers with long tendrils were mated to pure breeding normal fruiting dark cucumbers with reduced tendrils. The F1 were testcrossed and the testcross progeny are given below Time to Fruit Tendril Size Fruit Color Number Normal Normal Early Early Early Early Normal Normal Dark Light Light Dark Dark Light Light Dark 487 32 977 28 20 460 36 935 Long Reduced Reduced Reduced Reduced Use the map to answer the questions below Locus C Tendril Size Locus B R1 R2 How many progeny did you look at for this experiment? Answer:Explanation / Answer
Ans. Progeny observed in the experiment is calculated by adding all the progeny numbers observed in the testcross column.
Total progeny observed = 2975
Ans. (C.) Time to fruit or fruiting locus will be at the centre.
