What is the probability of getting a recessive phenotype for all three gene locus for the cross Aa Bb Cc X aa Bb cc?(a) 1/4(b) 1/16(c) 1/2(d) 1/8The question was posed to me in class test.I'd like to ask this question from Numerical Problems in division Mendelian Genetics of Cytogenetics

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (B) 1/16

For EXPLANATION I would say: In this case, the probability of each of the locus producing a recessive ALLELE is multiplied. That would be ½ X ¼ X ½ for A, B and C locus respectively.
