ebdgafc gcedabf dfagebc adgecbf bcgefad a. ebdgafc b. gcedabf c. dfagebc d. adgecbf e. bcgefad Deletions can be used to map genes along a chromosome. In order to do this a series of crosses in which one parent is homozygous for a mutant allele is crossed with the other parent that is homozygous for a partial deletion of the region. The progeny are scored to determine whether they have the mutant phenotype (m) or the wild-type phenotype (+). If a mutation falls within the deletion it will have the m phenotype, if it falls outside the deletion it will complement and have the (+) phenotype. Some of the deletions will take out more than one gene and thus will produce the m phenotypes with several of the genes in question. Use the following table of progeny phenotypes for 7 different deletions to determine the order of the genes a-g on the chromosome.Explanation / Answer
