A. Examine the crosses above and deduce the origin of G. hirsutum. Diagram your cross and give level of ploidy in your crosses, including gametes. Distinguish between chromosomes in your crosses. B. Diagram the three crosses above. Distinguish between the chromosomes and indicate the level of ploidy of hybrids formed from the above crosses. C. A monosomic G. hirsutum is crossed with G. thurberi and produces offspring, some with 39 chromosomes and some with 38 chromosomes. Using cytological examination at meiosis, the 38-chromosome types show 13 bivalents and 12 univalents. Explain these results by making the pertinent crosses.

Karl and Hally Sax crossed Aegilops cylindrica (2 n = 28), a wild grass found in the Mediterranean region, with Triticum vulgare (2 n = 42), a type of wheat . The resulting F1 plants from this cross had 35 chromosomes. Examination of metaphase I in the F1 plants revealed the presence of 7 pairs of chromosomes (bivalents) and 21 unpaired chromosomes (univalents). a. What does the appearance of the bivalents in the F1 hybrids suggest about the origin of Triticum vulgare wheat?
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. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: the Fl's are intercrossed? Show your solution. the Fl's are crossed with red plants? Show your solution.
