Two genes of a flower, one controlling blue (B) versus white (b) petals and the other controlling round (R) versus oval (r) stamens, are linked and are 10 map units apart. You cross a homozygous blue-oval plant with a homozygous white-round plant. The resulting F1 progeny are crossed with homozygous white-oval plants, and 1,000 F2 progeny are obtained. How many plants of each of the four phenotypes do you expect?

A three point test cross was carried out in Drosophila melanogaster involving three adjacent incomplete link genes A, B and C. arranged in the same order. The distance between A to B is 5 map units (mu) and that between B to C is 10 map. If pure line Drosophila AAbbCC crosses with aaBBcc to produce F1 offspring were allowed to cross with aabbcc result in following offspring genotype?
