In humans and other mammals, biological sex is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes: XY in males and XX in females. Genes on the X chromosome are said to be X-linked . X-linked genes have distinctive inheritance patterns because they are present in different numbers in females (XX) and males (XY).
In Drosophila flies, eye color is sex-linked. The allele for red eyes ( X W ) is dominant to the allele for white eyes (X w ). A male fly with red eyes X W Y and a carrier female X W X w are mated.
29 mar 2021 · In 1911, Morgan published a paper that described the inheritance patterns of 5 eye-colors in Drosophila (Morgan, 1911). Drosophila follows a sex determination based on the ratio of X:A chromosomes and not by the presence of a Y as in mammals. A 1:1 ratio results in a female and a 1:2 ratio results in a male where the Y is ignored.
