- In an autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. a. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: The F1’s are intercrossed? The F1’s are crossed with red plantsA homozygous strain of corn that produces yellow kernels is crossed with another homozygous strain that produces purple kernels. When the F1 are interbred, 197 of the F2 are yellow and 153 are prurple. Give the genotypes of the yellow and purple F2 and propose a genetic model that explains the inheritance of these kernel colors in corn.In Drosophila, a cross was made between a yellow-bodied male with vestigial wings and a wild-type (WT) female(brown body and normal wings). The F1 generation consisted of WT males and WT females. The F1 males and females were crossed, and the F2 progeny consisted of 16 yellow males with vestigial wings, 48 yellow males with WT wings, 15 brown males with vestigial wings, 49 WT males, 31 brown females with vestigial wings, and 97 WT females. Based on these results, explain the inheritance of the two genes (i.e. autosomal or sex-linked, dominant or recessive).
- In an autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: The F1’s are intercrossed? The F1’s are crossed with red plantsThe recessive allele s causes Drosophila to have small wings, and the s+ allele causes normal wings. This gene is known to be X linked. If a small-winged male is crossed with a homozygous wild-type female, what ratio of normal to small-winged flies can be expected in each sex in the F1? If F1 flies are intercrossed, what F2 progeny ratios are expected? What progeny ratios are predicted if F1 females are backcrossed with their father?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?
- Three autosomal recessive mutations in yeast, all producing the same phenotype (m1, m2, and m3), are subjected to complementation analysis. Of the results shown below, which, if any, are alleles of one another? Predict the results of the cross that is not shown—that is, m2 * m3. Cross 1: m1 * m24 F1: all wild-type progeny Cross 2: m1 * m34 F1: all mutant progenyTwo different female Drosophila were isolated, each heterozygous for the autosomally linked genes black body (b), dachs tarsus (d), and curved wings (c). These genes are in the order d–b–c, with b closer to d than to c. Shown in the following table is the genotypic arrangement for each female, along with the various gametes formed by both. Identify which categories are noncrossovers (NCO), single crossovers (SCO), and double crossovers (DCO) in each case. Then, indicate the relative frequency with which each will be produced.In Drosophila, ebony body colour is produced by a recessive gene a and wild-type (gray) body colour by its dominant allele a+. Vestigial wings are governed by a recessive gene vg, and normal wing size (wild type) by its dominant allele vg+. If wild-type dihybrid flies are crossed and produce 256 progeny, how many of these progeny flies are expected in each phenotypic class?
