<span>The F2 generation would have included a higher percentage of pea plants producing round, yellow peas. As the f2 generation included 315 plants producing round yellow peas, 108 with round green peas, 101 with wrinkled yellow peas, and 32 with wrinkled green peas which all are in the ratio 9:3:3:1.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.
The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.
So, en the exposed example:
- J and K are autosomal genes
- J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
- 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.
Cross) J K / j k x j k / j k
Gametes) JK Parental jk, jk, jk, jk
jk Parental
Jk Recombinant
jK Recombinant
One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.
1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination
60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination
30% Jk + 30% jK
100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.
40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)
20% JK + 20% jk
Punnet Square) JK jk Jk jK
jk JK/jk jk/jk Jk/jk jK/jk
J K / j k = 20%
j k / j k = 20%
J k / j k = 30%
j K / j k = 30%
