Three linked loci are evaluated to determine the recombination frequency of the loci. To set up the test cross, an individual that is true breeding dominant for all three phenotypes is crossed with an individual that is true breeding recessive for all three phenotypes. F1 offspring are crossed with individuals that are recessive for all phenotypes.

Question
  1. Three linked loci are evaluated to determine the recombination frequency of the loci. To set up the test cross, an individual that is true breeding dominant for all three phenotypes is crossed with an individual that is true breeding recessive for all three phenotypes. F1 offspring are crossed with individuals that are recessive for all phenotypes. The phenotypic results are shown in the table below.
