5 | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) | ![](/olcweb/styles/shared/spacer.gif) As described in Chapter 8, inversion heterozygotes produce strange chromosomes if a crossover occurs in the inverted region. The gametes produced from such a crossover usually produce offspring that cannot survive. (Refer back to pericentric and paracentric inversions). The inversion on the ClB chromosome thereby prevents the formation of viable offspring if a crossover occurs in the region that contains the lethal allele. Consider what would happen if this inversion were not present and a crossover occurred in the region between the lethal allele on the lB chromosome and the lethal allele caused by X rays on the homologous X chromosome. If such a crossover occurred, what would be the results? |
