In guinea pigs, white coat (w) is recessive to black coat (W) and wavy hair (v) is recessive to straight hair (V). A breeder crosses a guinea pig that is homozygous for white coat and wavy hair with a guinea pig that is black with straight hair. The F, are then crossed with guinea pigs having white coats and wavy hair in a series of testcrosses. The following progeny are produced from these testcrosses: black, straight black, wavy 30 10 white, straight 12 white, wavy 31 Total 83

The following pedigree shows the pattern of inheritance of red-green color blindness in a family. Females are shown as circles and males as squares; the squares or circles of individuals affected by the trait are filled in black. What is the chance that a son of the third-generation female indicated by the arrow will be color blind if the father is not color blind? If he is color blind?
Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?
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?
In tomatoes, tall (D) is dominant over dwarf (d) and smooth fruit (P) is dominant over pubescent fruit (p), which is covered with fine hairs. A farmer has two tall and smooth tomato plants, which we will call plant A and plant B. The farmer crosses plants A and B with the same dwarf and pubescent plant and obtains the following numbers of progeny: Q. Explain why different proportions of progeny are produced when plant A and plant B are crossed with the same dwarf pubescent plant.
When a white guinea pig is crossed to a yellow guinea pig, all the progeny are cream-colored. From a cross of two such F1’s, the F2 showed 32 white, 66 cream, and 30 yellow guinea pigs. How is this trait inherited? _______________ Identify the genotype of the white guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotype of the yellow guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotype of the cream-colored guinea pig. ________ Identify the genotypes and the corresponding phenotypes of the F2 progeny. Give the genotypic ratio. __________________ Give the phenotypic ratio. ___________________
In the tomato, yellow flowers (Y) is dominant to white flowers (y). A true-breeding yellow flowered strain is crossed with a true-breeding white flowered strain.A. If the F1 generation is self crossed, what will be the genotypes and phenotypes of the progeny and in what portions are they expected? B. If an F1 plant were crossed with a plant from true-breeding white flowered strain, what will be the genotypes and phenotypes of the progeny and in what portions are they expected?
In a three-point testcross, the nonrecombinant progeny are A+ B+ C+ and a b c. The double- crossover progeny are A+ B+ c and a b C+. Which gene is in the middle and why?
In dogs, dark coat color is dominant over albino, andshort hair is dominant over long hair. Assume that theseeffects are caused by two independently assorting genes.Seven crosses were done as shown below, in which D andA stand for the dark and albino phenotypes, respectively,and S and L stand for the short-hair and long-hairphenotypes.Number of progenyParental phenotypes D, S D, L A, S A, La.

This is a pedigree for a dominant trait caused by gene A in humans. Shaded symbols show individuals affected with the trait; non-shaded individuals are normal (aa). Among the progeny arising from the marriage of individual III-1, what proportion would be expected to show the trait? Among the progeny arising from the marriage of individual III-6, what proportion would be expected to show the trait?
. In mice, the following alleles were used in a cross: W = waltzing gait w = nonwaltzing gait G = normal gray color g = albino B = bent tail b = straight tail A waltzing gray bent-tailed mouse is crossed with a nonwaltzing albino straight-tailed mouse and, over several years, the following progeny totals are obtained: waltzing gray bent 18 waltzing albino bent 21 nonwaltzing gray straight 19 nonwaltzing albino straight 22 waltzing gray straight 4 waltzing albino straight 5 nonwaltzing gray bent 5 nonwaltzing albino bent 6 Total 100 a. What were the genotypes of the two parental mice in the cross? b. Draw the chromosomes of the parents.c. If you deduced linkage, state the map unit value or values and show how they were obtained.
Two recessive traits in mice—droopy ears and flaky tail—arecaused by genes that are located 6 mu apart on the same chromosome.A true-breeding mouse with normal ears (De) and a flaky tail ( ft)was crossed to a true-breeding mouse with droopy ears (de) and anormal tail (Ft). The F1 offspring were then crossed to mice withdroopy ears and flaky tails. If this testcross produced 100 offspring,what is the expected outcome of phenotypes?
Radishes may be round, oval and lomg. Aside from this, they may be red, purple or white in color. Red x white produces progeny, all of which are purple. If purple oval will becrossed with purple oval, how many types of phenotypes will appear and If purple oval are crossed with white, long radishes, then what genotypic and phenotypicratios exist in the progeny? Indicate the phenotypes of the offspring.
