More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Given the following matings, what are the predicted phenotypic ratios of the offspring? a. AABb Aabb b. AaBb aabb c. AaBb AaBb
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Two traits are examined simultaneously in a cross of two pure-breeding pea-plant varieties. Pod shape can be either swollen or pinched. Pea color can be either green or yellow. A plant with the traits swollen and green is crossed with a plant with the traits pinched and yellow, and a resulting F1 plant is self-crossed. A total of 640 F2 progeny are phenotypically categorized as follows: 360 swollen yellow 120 swollen green 120 pinched yellow 40 pinched green a. What is the phenotypic ratio observed for pod shape? Pea color? b. What is the phenotypic ratio observed for both traits considered together? c. What is the dominance relationship for pod shape? Pea color? d. Deduce the genotypes of the P1 and F1 generations.
Genes X, Y, and Z are linked. Crossover gametes between genes X and Y are observed with a frequency of 20%, and crossover gametes between genes Y and Z are observed with a frequency of 10%. What is the expected frequency of double crossover gametes among these genes?
Can you please help me solve and explain this question: Consider two genes A and B. If there are on average 8.5 crossovers taking place between A and B. what is the map distance between A and B? (map units)
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, a vestigial female fly is mated to a male that is scarlet eyes and bristled. Phenotypically wild type F1 female progeny were mated to fully homozygous (mutant) males, and the following progeny (of 1000 total) were observed (shown on table) A. Calculate and show the work for coefficient of coincidence B. Calculate the interference. What does this mean and what does it tell you?
Fruit flies with one allele for curly wings (Cy) and one allele for normal wings (Cy+) have curly wings. When two curly-winged flies are crossed, 2/3 of the offspring have curly wings and 1/3 have normal wings. If a curly-winged fly is mated to a normal-winged fly, how many flies of each type would you expect among 180 offspring?
Fruit flies having one allele for curly wings (Cy) and one allele for normal wings (Cy+) develp curly wings. Fruit flies homozygous for normal wings (Cy+) develop normal wings. When two curly-winged flies were crossed, 204 curly-winged and 98 normal-winged flies. In fact, all crosses between curly-winged flies produce nearly the same curly-winged to normal-winged ratio. How would you explain these results? The Cy allele is epistatic to the Cy+ allele. The Cy+ allelle shows partial dominance over the Cy allele. The Cy allele is dominant for the curly phenotype and is lethal when homozygous. The Cy+ allele is dominant over the Cy allele and is lethal when homozygous. The Cy+ and Cy alles are co-dominant.

Table 1: F1 ebony flies - 0 F1 non-ebony flies - 560 F1 stubble flies - 560 F1 non-stubble flies - 0 The researcher collects and crosses male and female flies from the F1 generation. In the resulting offspring, F2, there are both stubble and ebony flies. Draw a Punnett Square to illustrate the F1 cross for the stubbly phenotype showing the individual gametes of each parent and the combination in the resulting offspring.
Two plants in a cross were each heterozygous for two gene pairs (AB/ab) whose loci are linked and 10 map units (mu) apart. (Recall that 1 mu is equal to 1% recombination between two genes.) Assuming that crossing over occurs during the formation of both male and female gametes and that the A and B alleles are dominant, determine the phenotypic ratio of their offspring. Part D If the two genes are 15 mu apart and the plant is (Ab/aB), what proportion of gametes from a signal plant will be ab? Part E What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be A_B_ if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part F What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be A_bb if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part G What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be aaB_ if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part H What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be aabb if the genes are 15 mu apart? How would I solve these?
Two plants in a cross were each heterozygous for two gene pairs (AB /ab) whose loci are linked and 30 map units (mu) apart. (Recall that 1 mu is equal to 1% recombination between two genes.) Assuming that crossing over occurs during the formation of both male and female gametes and that the A and B alleles are dominant, determine the phenotypic ratio of their offspring. Part E: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab ) will be A - B- if the genes are 30 mu apart? Part F: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be A - bb if the genes are 30 mu apart? Part G: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be aaB- If the genes are 30 mu apart? Part H: What proportion of the offspring of two plants (both (AB/ab)) will be aabb if the genes are 30 mu apart?
