 Until now our analysis of genes has focused on defining genes based on phenotypic differences brought about by different alleles or by a direct test of function – the complementation test. In Chapters 4 and 5, our analysis will be concerned with tests of gene position.

-Morgan explained these unusual results by hypothesizing that the eye color gene white ($w$) is physically located on the sex chromosome $X$. Males only have one copy of the $X$ chromosome and females always get one copy of $X$ from their mother and one copy from their father. We can use modified symbols to show the genotypes that are directly associated, or linked, with the $X$ chromosome, and re-write Figure {{ref>Fig4}} as follows:
