In Drosophila, white, white cherry, and vermilion are all sexlinked mutations affecting eye color. All three mutations
Question:
In Drosophila, white, white cherry, and vermilion are all sexlinked mutations affecting eye color. All three mutations are recessive to their wild-type allele(s) for red eyes. A white-eyed female crossed with a vermilion-eyed male produces white-eyed male offspring and red-eyed (wildtype) female offspring. A white-eyed female crossed with a white cherry-eyed male produces white-eyed sons and light cherry-eyed daughters. Do these results indicate whether or not any of the three mutations affecting eye color are located in the same gene? If so, which mutations?
