Abstract:
Using the model of broad and narrow way, the paper introduces a new approach in the explaining of a few basic concepts in the Morgan Law. The paper introduces a thorough inquiry into the applying condition of the three-factor crosses, and finds the source of the difference between the crossover frequency (F(C)) and recombination frequency (F(R)) of the non-adjacent factors in the three-factor crosses in Neurospora crassa.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal chance to...
