When two independent pure lines AAbb and aaBB of pea with white flowers are crossed, the F1 progeny has purple flowers. Gene A and B link at 20 map unit. The following conclusions were made

A. When an heterozygous individual of the genotype AaBb is test crossed, progenies with purple and white in a ratio of 1:3

B. When an heterozygous individual of the genotype AaBb is test crossed, progenies with purple and white in a ratio of 1:9

C. This is an example of complementary gene action

D. The F2 progeny obtained on selfing shows both pruple and white flower in a ratio of 9:7

A three point test cross was carried out in Drosophila melanogaster involving three adjacent genes A, B and C. arranged in the same order. The distance between A to B is 15 map unit (mu) and that between B to C is 30 map. The coefficient of coincidence = 0.67. What is the percentage of double recombinants in the progeny obtained from the testcross?
