Symbols to Know for Crosses
• a/a – a is the allele and / represents the two chromatids – there are two alleles for a diploid organism
• a b/a b – two different genes on the same chromosome
• a/a ; b/b – two different genes on different chromosomes ; designated separate chromosomes
• X – symbolizes mating between two different individuals
• X - symbolizes a self cross – when the hermaphrodite worms fertilize their own eggs
• + is the wild type or non-mutant form of a gene
