The experiment shown in the given figure has been carried out by Morgan to show the phenomenon of linkage and recombination. If in cross $I$,genes are tightly linked and in cross $II$,genes are loosely linked,then what will be the percentage of recombinants produced in cross $I$ and cross $II$ respectively?
- A$98.7\%$ and $62.8\%$
- B$1.3\%$ and $37.2\%$
- C$37.2\%$ and $1.3\%$
- D$62.8\%$ and $98.7\%$

View SolutionIn a certain plant, red flowers $(R)$ are dominant to white flowers $(r)$ and tallness $(T)$ is dominant to dwarfness $(t)$. $A$ heterozygous plant $(RrTt)$ is backcrossed with a double recessive plant $(rrtt)$. If the gene loci for colour and size are situated very close together on the same chromosome, the expected percentage of offspring could be approximately:
Tall Red Tall White Dwarf Red Dwarf White
respectively.
| Tall Red | Tall White | Dwarf Red | Dwarf White |
respectively.
