The figure that follows shows one of Mendel’s dihybrid cross experiments where the alleles of the Y and R assorted independently.  In the F2, what would be the frequency of yy rr if the Y and R genes were linked and 20 m.u. apart?  

In Drosophila, yellow bodies (y ) and white eyes (w ) are both caused by recessive X-linked alleles. The normal alleles (y+ amd w+ ) cause tan bodies and red eyes, respectively. A y w female is mated to a y+ w+ male and the F1 progeny are allowed to mate with each other. Two hundred F2 were observed and they are: 55 y w; 45 y w+; 45 y+ w; 55 y+ w+.  What is the chi-square value for the test for goodness of fit of the null hypothesis of no linkage? (Recall that the chi-square statistic is the sum, for all classes, of (O-E)2/E.)
