204. Which of the following is suitable for experiment on linkage
(a) $aaBB \times aaBB$
(b) $AABB \times aabb$
(c) $AaBb \times AaBb$
(d) $AAbb \times AaBB$
Show Answer
Answer : b
Hints & Solution
(b) Due to linkage, the genes present on same chromosome stay together during transmission. All other combinations except AABB $\times$ aabb show recombination which do not show linkage and hence not suitable for experiments on linkage.
