The overall conclusion is that sums over all three F
families do not fit a 9:3:3:1 ratio. The A and B loci do segregate 3:1
ratio. There is a lack of independent assortment for the A and B loci,
or evidence of linkage.
The process of testing for a 9:3:3:1 ratio is repeated for each individual
F
family. Also, the X
,
X
,
X
are tested for each family.

Conclude that locus A and B segregate 3:1 and this ratio is homogeneous
for each locus. There is linkage between the A and B loci and the three
families are homogeneous for lack of independent assortment between
the two loci.
