seeks to help communities mitigate and adapt to climate change, as well as improve food security.
Answer:
The mentioned parental types are c+m- and c-m+. Thus, the recombinants will be c+m+ and c-m-.
Now, the given distance between c and m is 8 map units. Thus, the recombinant frequency is 8% or 0.08.
The total recombinants from 1000 plaques will come out to be 80,
Thus, the recombinants of each type will be 40.
Total parental type will be 920, and therefore, each parental type count will be 460.
Thus, expected c+m- = 460, expected c-m+ = 460, expected c+m+ = 40 and expected c-m- = 40.
