9. In a type of plant, tall (D) is dominant to dwarf (d), smooth fruit (P) is dominant to pubescent fruit (p), and wide leaves (N) is dominant to narrow leaves (n). The D and P genes ARE LINKED and the genetic distance is 10 CM. The N gene is UNLINKED to the D and P genes. There is no interaction or epistasis between any of the genes. You cross a DD pp NN plant with a dd PP nn plant, and then testcross the trihybrid plants. Out of 1000 testcross progeny, what is the expected number of plants that are dwarf, with smooth fruit, and narrow leaves? Final Answer
