Document Summary

A two point test cross is not the most effective way to build genetic maps. By performing three point test cross analysis, genetics can ef ciently map three linked genes simultaneously. Finding the relative order of genes by three point mapping. In a cross between trihybrid individual and one homozygous recessive for all three genes, the gene con guration need not be known in advancce. Incomplete linkage produces eight different gametes, with unequal frequencies if the genes are linked. Parental types will be observed most frequently, the recombinant types less frequently. 5. is the frequency of the double crossovers consistent with the independence of the single crossovers: are the data consistent with the proposal of genetic linkage. Under independent assortment, eight genetically distinct gametes would be produced with equal frequency: 1/8 x 726 = 90. 75 for each class. The chi-square value from the data in table 5. 3 in over 800, with df = 7 and a p value of

The following progeny are obtained from a testcross of a trihybrid wild-type plant to a plant with the recessive phenotypes compound leaves (c), intercalary leaflets (i), and green fruits (g) (Traits not listed are wild types). The testcross progeny are as follows:

Phenotype	Number
Compound leaves	324
Compound leaves, intercalary leaflets	32
Compound leaves, green fruits	5
Compound leaves, green fruits, intercalary leaflets	51
Intercalary leaflets	3
Green fruits	42
Wild type	49
Intercalary leaflets, green fruits	309
	815

Determine the order of the three genes, and construct a genetic map that identifies the correct order and the alleles carried on each chromosome in the trihybrid parental plant. Calculate the frequency of the recombination between the adjacent genes in the map. How many double cross-over progeny are expected among the test-cross progeny? Calculate the interference for this cross.
