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?
In sweet pea plant, an allele for purple flowers (P) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for red flowers (p). An allele for long pollen grains (L) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for round pollen grain (l). Bateson and Punnett crossed a plant having purple flowers/long pollen grains with one having white/flowers/round pollen grains. All F1 offspring had purple flowers and long pollen grains. Among the F2 generation, the researchers observed the following phenotypes: 296 purple flowers/long pollen grains 19 purple flowers/round pollen grains 27 red flowers/long pollen grains 85 red flowers/round pollen grains What is the best explanation for these results?
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
Consider this cross in pea plants: Tt Rr yy Aa × Tt rr Yy Aa, whereT = tall, t = dwarf, R = round, r = wrinkled, Y = yellow, y = green,A = axial, a = terminal. What is the expected phenotypic outcomeof this cross? Have one group of students solve this problem bymaking one big Punnett square, and have another group solve it bymaking four single-gene Punnett squares and using the multiplication method. Time each other to see who gets done first.
One strain of periwinkleplants has green leaves and another strain has white leaves. Bothstrains are true-breeding. You do not know if the phenotypicdifference is due to alleles of a nuclear gene or an organellar gene.The two strains were analyzed using reciprocal crosses, and thefollowing results were obtained:A plant with green leaves is pollinated by a plant with whiteleaves: all offspring have green leaves.A plant with white leaves is pollinated by a plant with greenleaves: all offspring have white leaves. Is this pattern of inheritance consistent with simple Mendelianinheritance, where green is dominant to white, and/or is it consistentwith maternal inheritance?
. In the tiny model plant Arabidopsis, the recessive allele hyg confers seed resistance to the drug hygromycin, and her, a recessive allele of a different gene, confers seed resistance to herbicide. A plant that was homozygous hyg/hyg ⋅ her/her was crossed with wild type, and the F1 was selfed. Seeds resulting from the F1 self were placed on petri dishes containing hygromycin and herbicide.a. If the two genes are unlinked, what percentage of seeds are expected to grow?b. In fact, 13 percent of the seeds grew. Does this percentage support the hypothesis of no linkage? Explain. If not, calculate the number of map units between the loci.c. Under your hypothesis, if the F1 is testcrossed, what proportion of seeds will grow on the medium containing hygromycin and herbicide?
Consider a dominant pure-breeding parent pea plant that had green peas, was tall, and had purple flowers, was crossed with a recessive pure-breeding parent that had yellow peas, was short, and had white flowers. In order to produce a gene map, Doja Cat selects a single F1 heterozygote offspring and test crosses it to produce 80 F2 offspring that collectively exhibit eight different phenotypes with 10 organisms of each phenotype. Can she automatically assume that the three genes in the pea plants were linked?
A cross is made between a pea plant that has constricted pods (arecessive trait; smooth is dominant) and is heterozygous for seedcolor (yellow is dominant to green) and a plant that is heterozygous for both pod texture and seed color. Construct a Punnettsquare that depicts this cross. What are the predicted outcomes ofgenotypes and phenotypes of the offspring?
You carry out a trihybrid cross (a cross in which the parental plants differ for three characters) between a tall pea plant with round, yellow seeds (TT RR YY) and a short pea plant with wrinkled, green seeds (tt rr yy). The parental plants are homozygous for all of the three characters. They are crossed to produce the F1 generation. Tall, round, and yellow are the dominant traits for each character. What will be the phenotypes of the F1 generation?
In a variety of tomato plant ,the leaves maybe pure green,pure white,or variegated (mixture). a)when 2 variegated plants were crossed,87 offspring were produced,of these 20 were green,46 were variegated and 21 remain died soon after germination.Draw a genetic diagram to explain these results,why did 21 of them died
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring? Construct the punnet square, then identify the following: 1. Parents’ genes?2. Parents’ traits?3. Genes (genotype)?4. Shape, color? (phenotype)?5. Genotypic ratio?6. Phenotypic ratio?
In pea plants, inflated pod is governed by a completely dominant gene and a constricted pod by a recessive gene. Another independently segregating dominant gene produces green pod while recessive gene produces yellow pod. Give the genotypes of the parents in each of the crosses given below.
