Question
Chapter 4, Problem 38.18P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The several different spore orders within each class.
Introduction: The Crossing over between centromere and gene in first and second division segregations.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason why different spore orders not change the class.
Introduction: The spores are found in a jumbled arrangement called an unordered tetrad. In other species, the spores are arranged in a striking linear arrangement called a linear tetrad.

You cross two yeast strains one is an ade auxotroph the other is a pro auxotroph and allow
the diploid to sporulate. When you score each spore in the ascus you find the following
proportions: 518 PD, 8 NPD, and 225 T.
a.) What are the genotypes of each spore in all three types of the tetrads.
b) Are these genes linked why or why not?
c.) If these genes are unlinked what would you expect the progeny numbers and ratios to
be?
d.) What is the formula to determine the most accurate distance between these genes? If
linked what is the map distance?
Certain varieties of chrysanthemums contain 18, 36, 54, 72, and 90 chromosomes; all are multiples of a basic set of nine chromosomes. How would you describe these varieties genetically? What feature do the karyotypes of each variety share? A variety with 27 chromosomes has been discovered, but it is sterile. Why?
What are multiples allels?

- are sex chromosomes the smallest chromosome in a karyogram? if not, then why are they last?arrow_forwardImagine that you have done a cross between two strains of yeast, one of which has the genotype A B C and the other a b c, where the letters refer to three closely linked genes in the order given. You examine many tetrads resulting from this cross, and the two tetrads below are found that have atypical scoring patterns. In tetrad I, the spores are A B C, ABC, a B c, and a b c. In tetrad II, the spores are A B C, A b c, a b C, and a b c. Which tetrad or tetrads indicate(s) that gene conversion has occurred AND show(s) that recombination has occurred between genes A and C?
