A particular flower can be purple, blue, red or white. Two different pure-breeding white plants are crossed and the F1 are then crossed to produce an F2 generation. What might a 9:7 phenotypic ratio in the F2 indicate? A) additivity B) codominance C) recessive lethality D) reciprocal recessive epistasis E) dominant epistasis Explain each answer.

In 1908 F. M. Durham and D. C. E. Marryat reported the results of breeding experiments with canaries. Cinnamon canaries have pink eyes when they first hatch, whereas green canaries have black eyes. Durham and Marryat crossed cinnamon females with green males and observed that all the F1 progeny had black eyes, just like those of the green strain. When the F1 males were crossed to green females, all the male progeny had black eyes, whereas all the female progeny had either black or pink eyes, in about equal proportions. When the F1 males were crossed to cinnamon females, four classes of progeny were obtained: females with black eyes, females with pink eyes, males with black eyes, and males with pink eyes—all in approximately equal proportions. Propose an explanation for these findings.
