Consider three yellow, round peas, labeled A, B, and C. Each was grown into a plant and crossed to a plant grown from a green, wrinkled pea. Exactly 100 peas derived from each cross were sorted into phenotypic classes as follows: A: 51 yellow, round 49 green, round B: 100 yellow, round C: 24 yellow, round 26 yellow, wrinkled 25 green, round 25 green, wrinkled What are the genotypes of plants A, B, and C? (Use gene symbols of your own choosing; be sure to define each one.)

Sunflowers with flowers 10 cm in diameter are crossed with a plant that has 20-cm flowers. The F1 plants have flowers 15 cm in diameter. In the F2 generation, 4 flowers are 10 cm in diameter and 4 are 20 cm in diameter. Between these are 5 phenotypic classes with diameters intermediate to those at the extremes. a. Assuming that the alleles that contribute to flower diameter act additively, how many genes control flower size in this strain of sunflowers? b. How much does each additive allele contribute to flower diameter? c. What size flower makes up the largest phenotypic class?
Considering the Mendelian traits tall (D) versus dwarf (d) and violet (W) versus white (w), consider the crosses below and determine the genotypes of the parental plants by analyzing the phenotypes of the offspring. Parental Plants Offspring tall, violet x tall, white 3/8 tall, white 3/8 tall, violet 1/8 dwarf, violet 1/8 dwarf, white Select the one best answer.

Many of the color varieties of summer squash are determined by two different interacting genes A and B: AA or Aa gives white colored squash, aaBB or aaBb gives yellow squash, and aabb produces green squash. A plant producing white squash is crossed with a plant producing green squash. One half of the offspring produces white squash; the other half produces green squash. What is the genotype of the parent plant producing white squash? AAbb AABB AaBb Aabb AaBB

Assume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the difference in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aa bb cc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AA BB CC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce F2 progeny. Give the phenotypes and the expected proportions of the F2 progeny.
In a certain plant, fruit is either red or yellow, and fruit shape is either oval or long. Red and oval are the dominant traits. Two plants, both heterozygous for these traits, were testcrossed, with the following results. Progeny Phenotype Plant A Plant B red, long 46 4 yellow, oval 44 6 red, oval 5 43 yellow, long 5 47 100 100 Determine the location of the genes relative to one another and the genotypes of the two parental plants.
Two gene loci, A and B, are on separate chromosomes and alleles A and B are dominant over alleles a and b. A codes for long branches, a codes for short branches. B codes for green leaves and b codes for blue leaves. A branch diagram or a punnett square would be useful for you to work this problem. What percentage of the progeny will have short branches and blue leaves from a cross AaBb × Aabb? Group of answer choices 1/8 1/4 1/2 3/4

If a plant is tall, has round seeds and purple flowers, with the genotype of TTRREE is crossed with a plant that is short and has wrinkle seeds and white flowers with the genotype ttrree. What would be the offspring of their F1 generation and F2 generation like? Form a Punnett square and write the phenotypic ratio?
Perform a chi-square test of independence on the data provided to determine if the genes for flower color and pollen shape in sweet peas are assorting independently. Give the chi-square value, degrees of freedom, and associated probability. What conclusion would you draw about the independent assortment of these genes? Hint: the expected phenotype ratios are 9:3:3:1 instead of 1:1:1:1 due to the type of cross that was performed.
Imagine you are crossing two plants that have these two genotypes—Tt and tt. What are the two genotypes of the gametes that the Tt plant can make? What is the one genotype of the gametes that the tt plant can make? Set up a Punnett square to analyze the cross. Does the Punnett square need to have four boxes or just two? If you were crossing a TT plant with a tt plant, how many boxes would be necessary in a Punnett square?
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.
