Assume that the genes for tan body and bare wings are 15 map units apart on chromosome II in Drosophila
Assume also that a tan-bodied, bare-winged female was mated to a wild-type male and that the resulting F1 phenotypically wild-type females were mated to tan-bodied, bare-winged males. Of 1000 offspring, what would be the expected phenotypes, and in what numbers would they be expected?
wild type = 425; tan-bare = 425; tan = 75; bare = 75
