Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What traits would you expect to observe in the F1 offspring if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green. a. only yellow-green seeds b. only yellow seeds c. 1:1 yellow seeds:green seeds d. 1:3 green seeds:yellow seeds
A plant with red flowers is crossed with a plant with white flowers and the resulting offspring have pink flowers. What type of inheritance pattern does this describe? If two plants with pink flowers are crossed, what will be the resulting phenotypes and in what ratio?
Suppose that goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, what is the probability that a cross between Aa Bb × Aa bb parents will produce three out of five offspring that are white and tall? Enter your answer as a decimal, rather than as a percentage
In incomplete dominance inheritance, a snapdragon plant that is homozygous for red flowers is crossed with a snapdragon plant that is homozygous for white flowers. What is the probability (%) that the offspring will have red flowers?
In a cross involving polygenic inheritance, three (3) gene pairs control plant height. The shortest andtallest plants are 12 cm and 24 cm, respectively. What height should all F1s display if the shortest andtallest plants were crossed, assuming environmental factors are the same?
A plant with red flowers is crossed with a plant with white flowers and the resulting offspring have pink flowers. What type of inheritance pattern does this describe? If two plants with pink flowers are crossed, what will be the resulting phenotypes and in what ratio? Show punnet squares if needed
Assume gene B and gene R assort independently. If gene B determines flower color (B=blue and b=white) and gene R determines leaf shape (R=round and r=oval), what proportion of offspring from a cross of BbRr x Bbrr should have blue flowers and oval leaves?
Many of the color varieties of summer squash are determined by two different interacting genes A and B: AA or Aa gives white colored squash, aaBB or aaBb gives yellow squash, and aabb produces green squash. A plant producing white squash is self-crossed. Three fourths of the offspring produces white squash; one fourth produces green squash. What is the genotype of the parent plant producing white squash?
Suppose that goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, what is the probability that a cross between Aa Bb × Aa bb parents will produce two out of six offspring that are brown and short? Provide answer as a decimal, rather than as a percentage.
A cross between two plants that both have yellowflowers produces 80 offspring plants, of which 38have yellow flowers, 22 have red flowers, and 20have white flowers. If one assumes that this variation in color is due to inheritance at a single locus,what is the genotype associated with each flowercolor, and how can you describe the inheritance offlower color?
A plant with yellow flowers was crossed with a plant with red flowers. The F1 progeny obtained had orange flowers. What is the inheritance pattern?
