Sex-linked Traits copyright cmassengale 8

Sex-linked Traits • Traits (genes) located on the sex chromosomes • Sex chromosomes are X and Y • XX genotype for females • XY genotype for males • Many sex-linked traits carried on X chromosome copyright cmassengale 9

Sex-linked Traits Example: Eye color in fruit flies Sex Chromosomes fruit fly eye color XX chromosome - female Xy chromosome - male copyright cmassengale 10

Sex-linked Trait Problem • Example: Eye color in fruit flies • (red-eyed male) x (white-eyed female) XRY x X r • Remember: the Y chromosome in males does not carry traits. • RR = red eyed Xr Xr • Rr = red eyed • rr = white eyed • XY = male XR • XX = female Y copyright cmassengale 11

Sex-linked Trait Solution: Xr XR XR Xr Y Xr XR Xr Xr Y 50% red eyed female 50% white eyed male copyright cmassengale 12
