Who put forward the “Theory of linkage''
Sutton
Morgan
De Vries
Bateson and Punnet
If gene exchange rate is $30\%$ of the two linked genes, then the distance between these two genes is
The map distance between genes $A$ and $B$ is $3$ units, between $B$ and $C$ $10$ units and between $C$ and $A$ $7$ units. The order of the genes in a linkage map constructed on the above data would perhaps be
The percentage of crossing over will be more if
Discuss in detail the contributions of Morgan and Sturtevant in the area of genetics.
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 |
