Assume you are studying two linked genes in lizards. You have two females and you know that both are the same genotype, heterozygous for both genes (A/a and B/b). You testcross each female to a male that is fully homozygous recessive for both genes (a/a and b/b) and get the following progeny with the following phenotypes:
Female 1:
AB-37
ab-33
Ab-4
aB-6
Female 2:
AB-5
ab-4
Ab-35
aB-36
How can you explain the drastic difference between these two crosses?
