| Description: Two reciprocal Drosophila crosses performed by Morgan to determine X-linkage of the gene for eye color. (a) Cross A produces F1 flies that all have red eyes. In the F2 all female flies have red (wild-type) eye color. The F2 males are about one-half red-eyed and one-half white-eyed. (b) Cross B is the reciprocal of Cross A and produces different result in the F1 and F2 generationsTwo reciprocal Drosophila crosses performed by Morgan to determine X-linkage of the gene for eye color.

A 1:1 ratio of red eyes to white eyes is observed in each sex.
