More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross in pea plants, in which smooth pea shape is dominant to wrinkled, and yellow pea color is dominant to green. A plant with smooth yellow peas is crossed to a plant with wrinkled green peas. The offspring produced peas that were all smooth and yellow. What are the genotypes of the parents? What are the genotypes of the offspring?

An ear of corn has a total of 381 grains, including 216 Purple & Smooth, 79 Purple & Shrunken, 65 Yellow & Smooth, and 21 Yellow & Shrunken. This ear of corn was produced by a dihybrid cross (PpSs x PpSs) involving two pairs of heterozygous genes resulting in a theoretical (expected) ratio of 9:3:3:1. Use a chi square
Two plants in a cross were each heterozygous for two gene pairs (AB /ab) whose loci are linked and 30 map units (mu) apart. (Recall that 1 mu is equal to 1% recombination between two genes.) Assuming that crossing over occurs during the formation of both male and female gametes and that the A and B alleles are dominant, determine the phenotypic ratio of their offspring. Part E: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab ) will be A - B- if the genes are 30 mu apart? Part F: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be A - bb if the genes are 30 mu apart? Part G: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be aaB- If the genes are 30 mu apart? Part H: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be aabb if the genes are 30 mu apart?
a. Among the progeny of a self-fertilized semisterilecorn plant heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation, what ratio do you expect for progeny plantswith normal fertility versus those showing semisterility? In this problem, ignore the rare gametesproduced by adjacent-2 segregation.b. Among the progeny of a particular self-fertilizedsemisterile corn plant heterozygous for a reciprocaltranslocation, the ratio of fertile to semisterileplants was 1:4. How can you explain this deviationfrom your answer to part (a)?
Two plants in a cross were each heterozygous for two gene pairs (AB/ab) whose loci are linked and 10 map units (mu) apart. (Recall that 1 mu is equal to 1% recombination between two genes.) Assuming that crossing over occurs during the formation of both male and female gametes and that the A and B alleles are dominant, determine the phenotypic ratio of their offspring. Part D If the two genes are 15 mu apart and the plant is (Ab/aB), what proportion of gametes from a signal plant will be ab? Part E What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be A_B_ if the genes are 15 mu apart?

Part H What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be aabb if the genes are 15 mu apart? How would I solve these?
Given two strains of autotetraploid plants AAaa – in this plant the gene is close to the centromere Aaaa – in this plant the gene is far from the centromere provide the gametes of the two plants, and the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring when crossed
. Chromosome 3 of corn carries three loci (b for plant-color booster, v for virescent, and lg for liguleless). A testcross of triple recessives with F1 plants heterozygous forthe three genes yields progeny having the followinggenotypes: 305 + v lg, 275 b + +, 128 b + lg, 112 + v +,74 + + lg, 66 b v +, 22 + + +, and 18 b v lg. Give the genesequence on the chromosome, the map distances between genes, and the coefficient of coincidence.
In autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. 1. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: a. the Fl's are intercrossed? Show your solution. b. the Fl's are crossed with red plants? Show your solution. c. If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions of gametes would the Fl be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.
