Complete dominance inheritance pattern

Reference no: EM1388428

A series of genetic crosses are planned to determine whether the genes for two characters are linked or unlinked. It is known from previous work that both characters exhibit a complete dominance inheritance pattern. In this particular species of elves, silver colored hair is dominant to tan colored hair, and pointed ears are dominant to rounded ears. Dihybrid silver-haired, pointed-ear elves are crossed with tan-haired, rounded-ear elves. The following phenotype frequencies are observed among the 92 offspring:

37 silver-haired, pointed-ear elves

38 tan-haired, rounded-ear elves

7 silver-haired, rounded-ear elves

10 tan-haired, pointed-ear elves

What is the recombination frequency between these two genes?	[7 + 37) / 92] x 100[(38 + 10) / 92] x 100[(7 + 10) / 92] x 100[(37 + 38 + 7 + 10) / 92] x 100[92 / (7 + 10)] x 100[(37 + 38) / 92] x 100
From these results one can conclude that _____________.	the two genes are linkedthe two genes are not linkedif the genes are linked, they are separated far enough apart to appear to assort independently
