In drosophila, the genes for eye color, wing shape, and wing length are located on chromosome ii. purple eyes (pr), arc bent wings (a), and vestigial wings (vg) are the mutant forms of the wild type traits red eyes, straight wings, and long wings, respectively.
you've discovered some data in your genetics laboratory which indicates that the distance between vg and pr is 12.5 m. u., the distance between a and pr is 44.7 m. u., and the distance between a and vg is 32.2 m. u.
part a
from this information, deduce the order of these genes on chromosome ii and identify which gene is in the middle.

part b
you begin studying heterozygous females (a pr vg/+ + +) and homozygous recessive males as part of your thesis project. based on the information from part a, if you set up a cross between the female and male flies, which of the following represents the phenotypic class of offspring resulting from a single crossover event between pr and vg?

a pr +/+ + vg
+ + vg/a pr +
+ pr +/a + vg
+ pr vg/a + +
part c
if a total of 1250 offspring were obtained from your cross, determine the number of offspring that you would expect to obtain that represent a single crossover event between pr and vg if interference does not occur.
part d
upon careful examination of the offspring obtained from your cross, it was determined that only 25 offspring were double crossover phenotype -- half of the 50 that was expected.
now, how many offspring that represent a single crossover event between pr and vg are expected, considering that positive interference has occurred?

To answer this question, researchers studied populations of the dusky salamander (desmognathus ochrophaeus) living on different mountain ranges in the southern appalachian mountains. the researchers tested the reproductive isolation of pairs of salamander populations by leaving one male and one female together and later checking the females for the presence of sperm. four mating combinations were tested for each pair of populations (a and b)—two within the same population (female a with male a and female b with male b) and two between populations (female a with male b and female b with male a). the proportion of successful matings for each mating combination was measured. for example, when all the matings of a particular combination were successful, the researchers gave it a value of 1; when none of the matings were successful, they gave it a value of 0. then the researchers calculated an index of reproductive isolation that ranged from 0 (no isolation) to 2 (full isolation). the reproductive isolation value for two populations is the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type within populations (aa + bb) minus the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type between populations (ab + ba). the table provides data for the geographic distances and reproductive isolation values for 27 pairs of dusky salamander populations.
