Linkage Individual Types Produced Experiment Detect Gene Dihybrid

Front Experiment that can be used to detect gene linkage
Back Dihybrid Test Cross
(cross a heterozygous individual for two traits with an individual that is recessive for both traits)

• If all 4 types of offspring are produced in same proportion, then there is no linkage at all.
• If there is some deviation from the ideal 25% ratio, then partial/incomplete linkage is present.
• If only parental types are produced (1:1:0:0), then there is complete/tight linkage.
