In a diploid species of plant, the genes for plant height and fruit shape are syntenic and separated by 18 m. u. Allele D produces tall plants and is dominant to d for short plant, and allele R produces round fruit and is dominant to r for oval fruit.

a. Identify the gametes for a plant with the genotype DR/dr, label parental and recombinants and give the frequency of each gamete type.
b. Give the same information for a plant with genotype Dr/dR

Answer and Explanation:

Crossing-over between two genes that are very close to each other in the chromosome is not that common. Crossing-over during meiosis occurs random positions all along the chromosome. Then, crossing-over frequency between two genes depends on the distance between them. A short distance between genes is a very little target for crossing-over to occur, which means that only a few of them will happen, compared with the number of events between genes that are more separated between each other.

Two genes that are very close will have a few recombination events and are strongly bounded. Two separated genes will have more chances of recombination and are not bound.

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 the recombination frequency is 1 in 100 meiotic products.

So, en the exposed example:

Identify the gametes for a plant with the genotype DR/dr and label parental and recombinants

Gametes DR parental type

Dr recombinant type

dr parental type

dR recombinant type

Give the frequency of each gamete type.

18 map units = 18 % of recombination in total

= % Dr + % dR

= 9% + 9%

100% - 18% = 82% of parental in total =

= % of DR + % dr

= 41% + 41%

The frequency for each gamete is:

DR 41%

dr 41%

Dr 9%

dR 9%

Identify the gametes for a plant with the genotype Dr/dR

Gametes Dr parental type

DR recombinant type

dR parental type

dr recombinant type

Give the frequency of each gamete type.

18 map units = 18 % of recombination in total

= % DR + % dr

= 9% + 9%

100% - 18% = 82% of parental in total =

= % of Dr + % dR

= 41% + 41%

The frequency for each gamete is:

Dr 41%

dR 41%

dr 9%

DR 9%
