1. The garden flower Salpiglosis sinuate
("painted tongue") come in different colors.
Several crosses are made between true-
breeding parental strains to produce F₁ plants,
which are in turn self-fertilized to produce F2
progeny.

a. State a hypothesis explaining the inheritance
of flower color in painted tongues.
b. Assign genotypes to the parents, F₁ progeny,
and F2 progeny for all five crosses.
c. In a cross between true-breeding yellow and
true-breeding lavender plants, all of the F1
progeny are bronze. If you used F₁ plants to
produce and F2 generation, what phenotypes in
what ratios would you expect? Are there any
genotypes that might produce a phenotype
that you cannot predict from earlier
experiments, and if so, how might this alter the
phenotypic ratios among the F2 progeny?
