You are studying 5 genes a b c d and e In an attempt to map

You are studying 5 genes: a, b, c, d, and e. In an attempt to map them, you perform a series of two-point crosses with the results listed below. Select the appropriate gene order based on the results of your experiment. a-b = 15 map units; a-c = 21 map units; a-d = 1 map unit; b-c = 6 map units; b-e = 2 map units; c-d = 20 map units; c-e = 8 map units; d-e = 12 map units.

Solution

Answer:

The order of genes as follows

a--1---d------12---------e----2--b------6------c
