Bateson and Punnett crossed two white-flowered lines and saw all purple flowers in the F1 generation. They concluded this was an example of complementary gene interactions because a cross of the F1 plants yielded what ratio in the F2 generation? A) 8 purple to 8 white B) 16 purple to 0 white C) 0 purple to 16 white D) 7 purple to 9 white E) 9 purple to 7 white

A genetic cross was made between two types of pea plants. One type produces round and green seeds, while the other type produces wrinkled and yellow seeds. A plant breeder crossed these two types and then allowed the F1 generation to self-fertilize. The following data were obtained: F1 generation: all produce wrinkled and yellow seeds. F2 generation: 157 produce wrinkled and yellow seeds 57 produce wrinkled and green seeds 54 produce round and yellow seeds 20 produce round and green seeds a) Propose a hypothesis that you think is consistent with the observed data. b) Test the goodness of fit between the data and your hypothesis using a chi square test. c) Explain what your calculated chi square results mean.
In an intra-species cross performed in mustard plants of two different species (Brassica juncea and Brassica oleracea), a tall plant (TT) was crossed with a dwarf (tt) variety in each of the two species. The members of the F1 generation were crossed to produce the F2 generation. Of the F2 plants, Brassica juncea had 60 tall and 20 dwarf plants, while Brassica oleracea had 100 tall and 20 dwarf plants. Use chi-square analysis to analyze these results.
In Figure 5-17, how many crossovers are required to produce a completely prototrophic exconjugant?
Renner carried out reciprocal crosses between two types of the evening primrose, Oenothera hookeri and O. muricata, known to have the same chromosome constitution. When the seed parent was O. hookeri, the plastids of the progeny were yellow; but when the seed parent was O. muricata, the plastids of the progeny were green. How might this difference in the results of reciprocal crosses be explained?
A genetic cross was made between two true-breeding parental fly strains. One parent strain displays red eyes and curly wings, while the other parent strain displays white eyes and vestigial wings. The resulting F1 generation flies were allowed to self-cross to produce F2 generation. The following data were obtained: F1 generation: all have red eyes and curly wings. F2 generation: 295 were red eyes and curly wings, 95 were red eyes and vestigial wings, 89 were white eyes and curly wings, 31 were white eyes and vestigial wings With this data above – please answer the following questions: Propose a hypothesis that explains the above inheritance pattern, test the goodness of fit between the data and your hypothesis using a chi square test. Use the chi square table from your textbook/online. Use the information obtained from the chi square table to explain what your calculated chi square results mean.
Why do strains #3 and #5 in the table below have different phenotypes?
Why are interspecies hybrids usually sterile? How can the sterility of interspecies hybrids be overcome? How does the “triangle of U” illustrate this principle?
A variety of opium poppy with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 plants had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were then interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2 plants, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. What are the genotypes of the plants in the P (parental), F1, and F2 generations? How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? Note: You can use the symbols A and B to represent the two genes involved. (How do we know there are two?)
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.
In the early 1990s, Carolyn Napoli and her colleagues were working on petunias, attempting to genetically engineer a variety with dark purple petals by introducing numerous copies of a gene that encodes purple pigment in the flower petals . Their thinking was that extra copies of the gene would cause more purple pigment to be produced and would result in a petunia with an even darker hue of purple. However, much to their surprise, many of the plants carrying extra copies of the purple gene were completely white or had only patches of color. Molecular analysis revealed that the amount of mRNA produced by the purple gene was reduced 50-fold in the engineered plants compared with wild-type plants. Somehow, the introduction of extra copies of the purple gene silenced both the introduced copies and the plant’s own purple genes. Provide a possible explanation for how the introduction of numerous copies of the purple gene silenced all copies of the purple gene.
Why is it so expensive to produce a hybrid plant seed?
What if the 80 offspring that were produced by Doja’s experiment instead contained 28 F2 offspring that have green peas, tall stalks, and purple flowers, and 29 of the reciprocal phenotype, yellow peas, short stalks, and white flowers. Would she be able to say the three genes were assorting independently of one another?
