Assignment: Series 2 Summary/ Diagram Linkage Analysis Crosses
Your assignment due at the beginning of Lab 3 is in two parts. Part 1 is to summarize concisely the Series 2 project in classical (forward genetics). The Background information at Description of the Project in Series 2 should be helpful but remember to summarize this extensive explanation and use your own words! The goal of this part of the assignment is for you to have a complete and clear understanding of the broad topic, our investigative goals, and the experimental approach that we will use to accomplish these goals and answer our experimental questions. The second part of the assignment is to narrow your focus to the experimental design of the first part of the project, our linkage analysis. You will turn in a filled out template that shows your hypothesis about the outcome of the crosses you will set up in this part of our investigation.
Summary of our Series 2 Classical (Forward Genetics) Investigation in C. elegans
Please construct a complete yet concise statement of the overall topic of investigation in Series 2 and the experimental question & goals of this classical (forward) genetics approach to understanding the structural and functional relationship between a gene and the product it encodes.
Linkage Analysis Cross Diagrams :
Using the templates provided at Media:Series 2 - Linkage Analysis Template v3.pdf, construct a diagram of crosses that you will set up in the Linkage Testing part of Series 2. In the template, make sure to answer all questions fully.
A Grading Rubric is found below.
