In mangoes wide leaf and narrow leaf are alternative characters and wide (W) is dominant to narrow (w). Red stem and green stem are another pair of characters with red (R) dominant to green (r) . A true breeding wide, green mango plant was crossed with a true-breeding narrow, red plant and the F1 plants were interbred. 337 F2 plants were produced with the following phenotypes; 202 wide, red; 69 wide, green; 15 narrow, green; 51 narrow, red. What probability is associated with the Chi Sq value you obtain?

Sunflowers with flowers 10 cm in diameter are crossed with a plant that has 20-cm flowers. The F1 plants have flowers 15 cm in diameter. In the F2 generation, 4 flowers are 10 cm in diameter and 4 are 20 cm in diameter. Between these are 5 phenotypic classes with diameters intermediate to those at the extremes. a. Assuming that the alleles that contribute to flower diameter act additively, how many genes control flower size in this strain of sunflowers? b. How much does each additive allele contribute to flower diameter? c. What size flower makes up the largest phenotypic class?
Imagine that you are performing a cross involving seed texture in garden pea plants. You cross true-breeding round and wrinkled parents to obtain F1 offspring. Which of the following experimental results in terms of numbers of plants are closest to what you expect in the F2 progeny? a. 8lOroundseeds b. 8lOwrinkledseeds c. 405:395 round seeds:wrinkled seeds d. 610:190 round seeds:wrinkled seeds
A true-breeding tall pea plant was crossed to a true-breeding dwarfplant. What is the probability that an F1 individual will be truebreeding? What is the probability that an F1 individual will be atrue-breeding tall plant?
A true-breeding purple-leafed plant isolated from one side of El Yunque, the rain forest in Puerto Rico, was crossed to a truebreeding white variety found on the other side. The F1 offspring were all purple. A large number of F1 * F1 crosses produced the following results: purple: 4219 white: 5781 (Total = 10,000) Propose an explanation for the inheritance of leaf color. As a geneticist, how might you go about testing your hypothesis? Describe the genetic experiments that you would conduct
A dark-red strain and a white strain of wheat are crossed and produce an intermediate, medium-red F1. When the F1 plants are interbred, an F2 generation is produced in a ratio of 1 dark-red: 4 medium-dark-red: 6 medium-red: 4 light-red: 1 white. Further crosses reveal that the dark-red and white F2 plants are true breeding. Predict the outcome of the F1 and F2 generations in a cross between a true-breeding medium-red plant and a white plant.
In peanut, a plant may be of the forms "bush" or runner". 2 different strains of peanut, V4 and G2, in which the "bush" phenotype occurred, were crossed with the following results: V4 bush x V4 bush = all bush G2 bush x G2 bush = all bush The 2 breeding strains of peanut bush were crossed in the following way: V4 bush x G2 bush = F1 runner F1 x F1 = 9 runner: 7 bush What are the genotypes of the parent and offspring? what is the genetic basis of the inheritance pattern of runner and bush in the F2 peanut?
In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk-shaped fruit (D) is dominant over sphere-shaped fruit (d).. If a squash plant true-breeding for white, disk-shaped fruit is crossed with a plant true-breeding for yellow, sphere-shaped fruit, what will the phenotypic and genotypic ratios be for: a. the F1 generation? b. the F2 generation? You must show the Punnett Square for the F2 generation!
A dark-red strain and a white strain of wheat are crossed andproduce an intermediate, medium-red F1. When the F1 plants areinterbred, an F2 generation is produced in a ratio of 1 dark-red:4 medium-dark-red: 6 medium-red: 4 light-red: 1 white. Furthercrosses reveal that the dark-red and white F2 plants are truebreeding. How many additive alleles are needed to produce each possiblephenotype?
A tall pea plant (homozygous dominant) is crossed to a pea plant that is heterozygous for the gene for height. Create a Punnett Square and use it to answer the following questions: What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring? What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Answers are written as genotype; phenotype a) 50% TT : 50% Tt; 100% tall plants b) 1 TT : 2 Tt : 1tt; 75% tall plants : 25% dwarf plants c) 1 TT : 2 Tt : 1tt; 25% tall plants : 50% medium height plants : 25% dwarf plants
You carry out a trihybrid cross (a cross in which the parental plants differ for three characters) between a tall pea plant with round, yellow seeds (TT RR YY) and a short pea plant with wrinkled, green seeds (tt rr yy). The parental plants are homozygous for all of the three characters. They are crossed to produce the F1 generation. Tall, round, and yellow are the dominant traits for each character. What will be the phenotypes of the F1 generation?
