Two genes (A and B) are located 10cM apart on the X chromosome. A woman is homozygous
for recessive mutant alleles for both genes. She has children with a wild-type man who is
homozygous for both genes. What proportion of their children are expected to show wild-type
phenotype for both genes? 100% 95% 0% 5% 50%
Solution
D.5%
Homozygous dominant = p2 = 0.25
Homozygous dominant = q2 = 0.25
children 2pq = 0.5
Now the homozygous make up 2/3 of the surviving population, so the recessive allele makes up
1/3 of the total alleles in the population. 2pq = 0.5 or 5%
