Dihybrid cross

Genetic cross tracking inheritance of two genes

Unlinked genes

Genes on different chromosomes or far apart on same chromosome

FOIL method in dihybrid crosses

First, Outside, Inside, Last alleles for gamete combinations

Phenotypic ratio: unlinked dihybrid (heterozygous parents)

9:3:3:19:3:3:1 ratio

Linked genes

Genes close together on same chromosome, inherited together

1 map unit equals

1% chance of crossing over

Parental chromosome

Chromosome with same allele combination as parent's chromosome

Recombinant chromosome

Chromosome created by crossing over, not identical to parent's

Notation for linked genes (example)

Slash notation: Be/bE (alleles on one/alleles on other)

Independent assortment

Random orientation of homologous chromosomes in metaphase I
