Using data from a testcross of a dihybrid,a $\chi$² value of 6.5 was obtained,with 3 degrees of freedom.What is the correct interpretation of this result? A)The p value is approximately 0.01 (1%),so the hypothesis of no linkage should be rejected. B)The p value is approximately 0.01 (1%),so the hypothesis of no linkage should not be rejected. C)The p value is approximately 0.1 (10%),so the hypothesis of no linkage should be rejected. D)The p value is approximately 0.1 (10%),so the hypothesis of no linkage should not be rejected.

With 3 degrees of freedom and a chi-square value of 6.5, the p-value is approximately 0.1 (10%). Since this p-value is greater than the typical significance level of 0.05, the hypothesis of no linkage should not be rejected.
