Flower color in lilies is controlled by an incomplete dominance pattern. Suppose you have two lily plants, both with orange flowers. You cross the two plants and are surprised to find that, half the offspring are orange, but ~25% are red and ~25% are yellow. You decide that you like the red flowers and would like to make more. a) What cross would you perform to produce the most red flowered plants? b) Your mother decides she would like some of the orange flowered lilies. Which cross would give you the most orange flowered plants?

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?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross: P1: AABBCCDDEE aabbccddee F1: AaBbCcDdEe (self-cross to get F2) What is the chance of getting an AaBBccDdee individual in the F2 generation?
Imagine you are Performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What F1 offspring would you expect if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green.
In crosses made among four-o'clock plants, red flower color plants are crossed with white flower color plants. All the offspring show a pink flower color. If a pink-flowered plant is crossed with a red-flowered plant, what will be the phenotypic ratios of their offspring? 1/4 red flowered, 1/4 white flowered, 1/2 pink flowered 1/3 red flowered, 2/3 pink flowered 1/2 red flowered, 1/2 pink flowered 3/4 red flowered, 1/4 pink flowered 1/2 white flowered, 1/2 pink flowered
A cross of 2 sweet pea plants with white flowers results in F1 plants with wild type purple flowers. Purple flowers are dominant and white flowers are recessive. How many genes are involved in this cross? Show the P1 cross and F1 genotype. If you cross F1 x F1, what ratio would you expect to observe with regards to flower color?
in a certain plant, when individuals with blue flowers are crossed with individuals with blue flowers, only blue flowers are produced. plants with red flowers crossed with plants with red flowers sometimes produce only red flowers, although other times they produce either red or blue flowers. when plants with red flowers are crossed with plants with blue flowers, sometimes only red flowers are produced; other times either red or blue flowers are produced. which of the following is true? Red is incompletely dominant Red is recessive Red is dominant Red is codominant Blue is dominant
In crosses made among four-o'clock plants, red flower color plants are crossed with white flower color plants. All the offspring show a pink flower color. If a pink-flowered plant is crossed with another pink-flowered plant, what will be the phenotypic ratios of their offspring? All pink flowered 3/4 pink flowered, 1/4 red flowered 1/2 red flowered, 1/2 pink flowered 1/2 white flowered, 1/2 pink flowered 1/4 red flowered, 1/4 white flowered, 1/2 pink flowered
In snapdragon plants, red flower color (CR) has incomplete dominance with white flower color (CW). If a plant that is homozygous for red flowers is crossed with a plant that is homozygous for white flowers, then what is the probability of producing offspring that have white flowers?
In snapdragons, flower color shows incomplete dominance. Plant height (tall or short) is a standard dominant/recessive trait. If you cross a red-flowered, heterozygous tall plant with a white-flowered, heterozygous tall plant, how many of the offspring would you expect to have pink flowers and be short?
Which of the following statements incorrectly illustrates incomplete dominance? Select one: a. Dark brown fur crossed with white fur produces yellow fur. b. Tall plants crossed with short plants produce medium height plants. c. A black horse crossed with a white horse produces a mixture of white and black hair in a horse. d. Red flowers crossed with white flowers produce pink flowers
In peas, purple flowers are dominant to white. If a purple-flowered, heterozygous plant were crossed with a white-flowered plant, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F1F1offspring? If two of the purple-flowered F1F1 offspring were randomly selected and crossed, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F2F2 offspring?
Suppose you do a cross between two parents who are both heterozygous for two traits, such as petal shape (narrow or wide, narrow is dominant) and flower color (red or white, red is dominant). If there are 160 offspring, how many would you expect to have wide petals with red flowers?
