Question:

In rabbits, the dominant allele C is required for colored fur; the recessive allele c makes the fur colorless (albino). In the presence of at least one C allele, another gene determines whether the fur is black (B, dominant) or brown (b, recessive). A homozygous strain of brown rabbits was crossed with a homo-zygous strain of albinos. The F1 were then crossed to homo-zygous double recessive rabbits, yielding the following results: black 34; brown 66; albino 100. Are the genes b and c linked? What is the frequency of recombination? Diagram the crosses, showing the arrangement of the genetic markers on the chromosomes.
