• A cross between two true-breeding parents that possess different forms (alleles) of two genes is called a dihybrid cross.

Mendel’s laws
We saw in monohybridcrosses that the allelesof a gene exist as pairsbut when gametes areformed, the membersof each pair pass intodifferent gametes(Mendel’s first law: theprinciple ofsegregation)
![Page 10: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Mendel’s second law , the principle ofindependent assortment, means that duringgamete formation the two alleles of a genesegregate into different gametes independentlyof the two alleles of any other gene.

Dihybrid crosses – continued.
Recombination
In a dihybrid cross, two of the F2 phenotypes
resemble the original (P) parents and twodisplay new combinations of the characteristics.This is called recombination and individualspossessing them are called recombinants

Dihybrid backcross (testcross)
A useful method in studies of dihybridinheritance is the backcross - this is where theF1 from a normal dihybrid cross are backcrossed
(testcrossed) with double recessive individuals.
e.g. another fruit fly cross:

• This F2 generation consists of 50% parental genotype and 50% recombinant genotypes because the two genes involved are on separate chromosomes and show independent assortment.
![Page 19: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Linkage and Crossing overIf each chromosome consisted of just one genethen independent assortment would happen inall dihybrid crosses.Each chromosome is, however, made up of ahuge number of different genes and these don’tbehave independently of one another.When a cross involves two different geneslocated on the same chromosome, the twogenes are transmitted together, i.e. theyare linked
![Page 20: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
If genes are completely linked, then a backcrosswould fail to produce any recombinantse.g. Moth book page 74, figure 14.6 – all
offspring are the phenotype of one of the parents
See also Frog book page 98, figure 14.6
![Page 21: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Separation of linked genes
Straightforward transmission of linked genestogether doesn’t always happen.This is because during meiosis, crossing over canoccur between chromatids at chiasmata,allowing genes that were previously linked onthe same chromosome to recombine in differentcombinations, generating recombinants
Copy the cross in fig. 14.7 on p75 (moth book)
![Page 22: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Frequency of recombination
Since chiasmata can occur at any point along achoromosome, the further apart genes are on achromosome, the more crossing over (andtherefore recombination) can take place.
The distance between two genes on a chromosomeis therefore indicated by the number, or percentage,of recombinants in the F2 generation resulting from
a testcross.
![Page 23: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
e.g.
The frequency of chiasmata formation between A and C is greater than between A and B and is much greater than between B and C
The recombination of linked genes is yet another source of variation provided by meiosis.

Recombination frequency
Recombination frequency or Crossover Value (COV) is calculated as follows:
No. of F2 recombinants
COV = x100Total No. F2 offspring
![Page 25: 14 Dihybrid Cross](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051120/568c4c7f1a28ab4916a05f31/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Chromosome MapsThe frequency of recombination is used to
calculate the positions of genes on chromosomes to produce chromosome maps.
A COV of 1% represents 1 unit of distance on a chromosome
The position of a gene on a chromosome is it’s locus (plural = loci)
