In German cockroaches, curved wings (cv) are recessive to normal wings (cv+). A homozygous cockroach having normal wings is crossed with a homozygous cockroach having curved wings. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. Assume that the pair of chromosomes containing the locus for wing shape is metacentric. Draw this pair of chromosomes as it would appear in the parents, the F1, and each class of F2 progeny at metaphase I of meiosis. Assume that no crossing over takes place. At each stage, label a location for the alleles for wing shape (cv and cv+) on the chromosomes.

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?
Thorn apples produce either purple (P) or white (p) flowers, and their fruits are either spiny (S) or smooth (s). These two genes are located on non homologous chromosomes. a. What is/are the phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring that result from the cross PPss x PpSs? b. If the cross PpSS x ppSs is made, which of the following is/are not represented in the offspring? PpSS PpSs ppSS ppSs PPSs
In dogs, black coat color (B) is dominant to yellow coat color (b), and straight fur (C) is dominant to curly fur (c). The coat color gene and the fur texture gene are on different chromosomes, so they assort independently, and are not sex-linked. In a cross between two BbCc parents, given that an offspring has black coat color and straight fur, what's the probability that it is heterozygous for both genes? Give 2 digits past the decimals.
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 plants

Three autosomal genes are linked along the same chromosome.The distance between gene A and B is 7 mu, the distance betweenB and C is 11 mu, and the distance between A and C is 4 mu. Anindividual that is AA bb CC was crossed to an individual that is aaBB cc to produce heterozygous F1 offspring. The F1 offspring werethen crossed to homozygous aa bb cc individuals to produce F2offspring.If we assume that no double crossovers occur, what percentageof F2 offspring is likely to be homozygous for all three genes?
. Chromosome 3 of corn carries three loci (b for plant-color booster, v for virescent, and lg for liguleless). A testcross of triple recessives with F1 plants heterozygous forthe three genes yields progeny having the followinggenotypes: 305 + v lg, 275 b + +, 128 b + lg, 112 + v +,74 + + lg, 66 b v +, 22 + + +, and 18 b v lg. Give the genesequence on the chromosome, the map distances between genes, and the coefficient of coincidence.
You have been given a virgin Drosophila female. You notice that the bristles on her thorax are much shorter than normal. You mate her with a normal male (with long bristles) and obtain the following F1 progeny1 3 short-bristled females, 1 3 long-bristled females, and 1 3 long-bristled males. A cross of the F1 long-bristled females with their brothers gives only long-bristled F2. A cross of short-bristled females with their brothers gives 1 3 short-bristled females, 1 3 long-bristled females, and 1 3 long-bristled males. Provide a genetic hypothesis to account for all these results, showing genotypes in every cross.
In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the trait of black body is due to a gene on chromosome 2 and black body b is recessive to wild type body b + . The trait of purple eyes is controlled by a gene that is also on chromosome 2 and purple eyes p is recessive to wild type eyes p + . A true-breeding wild type strain is crossed with a true breeding strain that has black bodies and purple eyes. The F1 generation is then testcrossed to the black body, purple eye strain and 500 progeny are produced as follows: 224 wild type for both body and eye 236 black body and purple eye 18 wild type body and purple eye 22 black body and wild type eye. What is the recombination frequency and genetic map distance between the two genes?
In Drosophila, a cross was made between a yellowbodied male with vestigial (not fully developed)wings and a wild-type female (brown body). The F1generation consisted of wild-type males and wild-typefemales. F1 males and females were crossed, and theF2 progeny consisted of 16 yellow-bodied males withvestigial wings, 48 yellow-bodied males with normalwings, 15 males with brown bodies and vestigialwings, 49 wild-type males, 31 brown-bodied femaleswith vestigial wings, and 97 wild-type females.Explain the inheritance of the two genes in questionbased on these results.
The order of the genes on a plant chromosome is A, B, C, where A and B are located 10 cM apart and B and C are located 3 cM apart. What is the probability that the trihybrid ABC/abc will produce any kind of recombinant gamete?
In snapdragons, red flower color (R) is incompletely dominant over white flower color (r), so that the heterozygote has pink flowers. A red snapdragon is crossed with a white snapdragon, and the F1 are intercrossed to produce F2. What is the genotype and phenotypes of the F1 and F2, along with their expected proportions? If the F1 are backcrossed to the white parent, what will be the expected genotype and phenotype of the offspring? If the F1 are backcrossed to the red parent and the resulting progeny are intercrossed, what is the expected proportions of genotypes and phenotypes in the progeny?
