Mendel observed that some characters did not assort independently. Later researchers found it to be due to
Crossing-over
Linkage
Dominance of one trait over the other
Amitosis
Two heterozygous parents are crossed. If the two loci are linked what would be the distribution of phenotypic features in $\mathrm{F}_{2}$ generation for a dihybrid cross?
$A$ : Morgan's cross III was conducted in Drosophila to locate genes on chromosome for white eye colour.
$R$ : The cross was done between red eyed hybrid female and white eyed male.
Which one of the following pair is correctly matched
The linkage map of $X$-chromosome of fruit fly has $66$ units with yellow body gene $(y)$ at one end and bobbed hair $(b)$ gene at the other end. The recombination frequency between these two genes ($y$ and $b$) should be
In a certain plant, red flowers $(R)$ are dominant to white flowers $(r)$ and tallness $(T)$ is dominant to dwarfness $(t)$. A heterozygous plant $(RrTt)$ is backcrossed with a double recessive plant $(rrtt)$. If the gene loci for colour and size and situated very close together on the same chromosome, the expected percentage of offsprings could be approximately
tall red |
tall white |
dwarf red |
dwarf white |
