Butterflies show 3 phenotypes due to incomplete dominance at the D locus with alleles DY and DB giving green phenotype in heterozygotes and yellow and blue in homozygotes a) A population of butterflies showed 49% yellow, and 51% blue and green. What percentage of the gametes for the next generation would contain the DB allele? b) In another population only 1% of the butterflies are blue, What is the DY allele frequency? c) If the butterflies were subject to predation by birds that could easily detect blue & yellow individuals what effect would you expect this to have on the genotype and allele frequencies over time? Indicate possible percentages.

Problem 4: In Andalusian fowls, the heterozygous condition for the alleles of black plumage and white plumage is blue plumage. What offspring will a blue Andalusian rooster have if bred to birds of the following plumage: black plumage blue plumage white plumage Diagram the three crosses. List the probability of each of the three types of plumage occurring.
Problem 3: In snapdragons, the inheritance of flower color and size of leaves are examples of Incomplete Dominance. When red flowered plants are crossed with white, the offspring have pink flowers. Similarly, when a plant with broad leaves is crossed with plants having narrow leaves, the offspring have intermediate leaves. Regarding a cross between a homozygous red-flowered, broad- leaved plant with a homozygous white-flowered, narrow-leaved plant. What are the phenotypes and their ratio in the F1 generation? Construct a Punnett square. What are the phenotypes and their ratio in the F2 generation? Construct a Punnett square.
Problem 4) About 7% of men in a population are red-green colour blind due to a sex-linked recessive gene. Assuming random mating in the population with respect to colour blindness; a) What percentage of women would be expected to be colour blind? b) What percentage of women would be expected to be heterozygous? c) What percentage of men would be colour blind in the next generation?
Problem 2) Skin colour in dolphins is determined by a single gene showing incomplete dominance giving rise to 3 phenotypes Brown, Pink & White. A survey of a large population of dolphins was carried out and the phenotypes recorded. However a student who had some of the data stored on their phone fell overboard and unfortunately the data was lost. The only data saved was that the brown homozygous dominants (BB) were 64% of the population . a) What would be the percentage of pink heterozygotes and white homozygotes?
Subject: Genetic problems 6. how would you recognize a line of garden peas that had become genotypically pure for a given trait? 7. A cross of two pink-flowered plants produces offspring whose flowers are red, pink, or white. Defining your genetic symbols, give all the different kinds of genotypes involved, and the phenotypes they represent. 9. In snapdragons, red flowers (R) are incompletely dominant to white (r), the hybrid being pink; narrow leaves (N) are incompletely dominant to broad leaves (n), the hybrid being intermediate in width ("medium"). show the genotypes and phenotypes for the progeny of a cross between a. red medium and pink medium plant b. a pink medium and white narrow c. two identical dihybrids 12.
