Which of the following linkage maps correctly shows the order and distance between the y, f, and v genes?

In Drosophila, the genes y, f, and v are all X-linked. Females who are homozygous for recessive alleles of all three genes (y f v / y f v) are crossed to wild-type males. The resulting trihybrid F1 females are testcrossed. The F2 are distributed as follows:



A) f——35 m.u.——y——15 m.u.——v
B) f——22 m.u.——y——15 m.u.——v
C) y——35 m.u.——f——22 m.u.——v
D) y——22 m.u.——v——15 m.u.——f
E) y——15 m.u.——v——22 m.u.——f
