When a white eye Drosophila male (Xr Y) is crossed to a red eye female (XR XR), in the F2 generation all the females are red eyed and 50% males are white eyed. In a criss-cross test, when males are white eyed. In a criss-cross test, when a white eyed female (Xr Xr) is crossed to a red eye male (XRY), the F1 generation offspring had white eyed males while the female offspring bad red eyes. Instead of crossing of a white eyed female (Xr Xr} to a red eyed male (XRY), white eye female (XrXr) to white eye male (XrY) is crossed, the F1 generation will have the following phenotypes and genotype.
