  1. When the order of a number of linked genes is conserved between genomes, it is called synteny.
  2. Gene Order displays  a dot plot with diagonal lines denoting collinearity of genes and lines off the diagonal indicating inversions or rearrangements in the genomes.
  3. Gene Order is a web based program that allows direct comparison of a pair of genomic sequences of less than 2 Mb.
  4. Another aspect of comparative genomics is the comparison of gene order.

#Section 3: Genetics, Cellular and Molecular Biology

In a typical Mendelian population, individuals carrying gene ‘a’ in homozygous condition suffer from phenylketonurea. Those with A in homozygous condition are normal. Others, who are heterozygotic with Aa, are carriers. If the frequency of ‘a’ in a population is 0.20, what is the percentage of normal individual in the population?

A population of insects is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a gene with alleles A = orange and a = yellow eyes. There are 91% orange and 9% yellow individuals in the population. If the fitness of the yellow phenotype suddenly drops to zero, what will be the allele frequency in the next generation?
