We would like to estimate the recombination frequency between the white gene and the miniature gene in fruit flies. For the white gene, the wild-type allele (w+) and the mutant allele (w-) are respectively related to red and white eyes. For the miniature gene, the wild-type allele (m+) and the mutant allele (m-) are respectively related to full and miniature wings. In the experiment, we crossed pure-line females that are white-eyed and miniatured-winged with pure-line males that are red-eyed and full-winged. We then collected F1 females and crossed with pure-line males that are white-eyed and miniature-winged. Below is the figure and the F2 data. What would be the recombination frequency between these two genes?White eye & Miniature wing 30 White eye & Full wing 15 Red eye & Miniature wing 15 Red eye & Full wing 40
