Nn (male) x NN (female)
Gametes n (male) + N (female) x N + N n (male) + N N (female) + N | | Nn (male) NN (female) That is all offspring normal, but the males again heterozygous. An affected male has the constitution _nn_, and if he marries a normal woman the descent is as follows:-- nn (male) x NN (female) Gametes n (male) + n (female) x N + N n (male) + N N (female) + N | | nN (male) nN (female) When a normal male is mated with a heterozygous _nN_ female we get nN (male) x nN (female) Gametes n (male) + N (female) x n + N ______________________|______________________ | | | | nn (male) nN (male) nN (female) NN (female) that is, half the sons are normal and half colour-blind, while half the females are homozygous and normal, and the other half heterozygous and normal. |
