Consider two linked autosomal genes. The dominant allele C
of the first gene causes cataracts of the eye, whereas its
recessive allele produces normal eyes. The dominant allele
P causes polydactyly (an extra finger) whereas its allele
(p) produces a normal number of fingers. A man with
cataracts and normal fingers marries a woman with
polydactyly and normal eyes. Their son has both polydactyly
and cataracts and he marries a woman with neither trait.
What is the probability that their first child will have
cataracts and polydactyly?

In hogs a gene that produces a white belt around the animal's body is dominant over its allele for a uniform body. Another independent dominant gene produces fusion of the hoof (syndactyly). Suppose a uniformly colored hog homozygous for syndactyly is mated with a normal footed hog homozygous for the belted character. What would be the phenotype of the F1? If the F1's interbreed, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the F2?

In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
