Essay
Below are a list of chromosomal aberrations (a-d)and a list of potential diagnostic features (1-7).On the blank line following each aberration,write the number(s)of all the diagnostic features that may apply to that aberration.Note that each diagnostic feature may be used more than once.
List of chromosomal aberrations:
a)deletion _____
b)duplication _____
c)inversion _____
d)translocation _____
List of potential diagnostic features:
1)formation of chromosomal "cruciform" structures in meiosis I
2)formation of chromosomal "loop" structures in meiosis I
3)Recombinant frequencies between genes on the same chromosome are (much)lower than expected.
4)reduced fertility (other than semisterility)
5)semisterility
6)pseudodominance
7)pseudolinkage (two genes on separate chromosomes do not segregate independently).
