In Drosophila, red eyes is wild-type and purple eyes are mutant. Full-size wings are wild-type and vestigial wings are mutant. F

lies with wild-type pr pr vg vg genotypes were crossed with double mutant flies with a pr-pr- vg-vg- genotypes. The F1 flies had pr pr- vg vg- genotypes. The F1 flies with heterozygous genotypes were crossed with double mutant flies with a pr-pr- vg-vg- genotypes One thousand offspring were typed. This cross produced 430 red-eye, wild-type wing flies, 65 purple-eye wild-type wing flies, 60 red-eye, vestigial wing flies, and 445 purple-eye, vestigial wing flies. What is the distance between the loci for purple eyes and vestigial wings in centiMorgans (map units)
