Perform a testcross with a barley plant that has a short stalk and thin leaves. D. Perform a testcross with a barley plant that has a tall stalk and wide leaves.
Part A) You cross a fly with straight wings with a fly with curved wings to produce the F1 generation, all of which exhibit straight wings. In the F2 generation, you observe 65 straight-winged flies and 16 curved-wing flies. Based upon the results, which phenotype is recessive? Part B) You think this trait is controlled by a single gene, but the F2 numbers don’t quite match a 3:1 expected ratio. Perform a chi-square analysis to determine if the variation you observe is due to chance or not. Based upon this determination, would you keep or reject the “null hypothesis”? Show your work and explain your reasoning.
