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?
The genes for tall vine D and yellow seed G, are dominant over their respective alleles for dwarf d and green g. What phenotypes are expected from each of the following crosses? Include phenotypic and genotypic ratio. Use Punnet square to show the ff. Crosses. a. Heterozygous tall, homozygous yellow X Homozygous Tall, heterozygous yellow. b. Homozygous Dwarf, heterozygous yellow X Heterozygous tall, homozygous green
What are the expected phenotypic ratios in the offspring of the following crosses (written as red : orange : green)? Use the most simplified ratio (e.g. 1 : 4 instead of 2 : 8). Fill in 0 if none of the offspring from a cross will be a particular color. RRgg x rrGg - red : orange : green RrGg x RrGg - red : orange : green RrGg x rrGg - red : orange : green
The genes of tall vine, D, and yellow seed, G, are dominant over their respective alleles for dwarf, d, and green, g. What pheno types and genotypes are expected from each of the following crosses? Include phenotypic and genotypic ratio. a) heterozygoes tall, homozygoes yellow x homozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow b) dwarf, heterozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, green c) homozygoes tall, homozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, green d) heterozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow
: In poultry, the genotype-phenotype relationships for comb shape are R/– P/–, walnut; R/–p/p, rose, r/r P/–, pea; and r/r p/p, single. What will be the comb characters of the offspring ofthe following crosses?a) A walnut crossed with a single produces offspring that are walnut, rose, pea, and single.b) A rose crossed with a walnut produces offspring that are walnut, rose, pea, and single.c) A rose crossed with a pea produces five walnut and six rose offspring.d) A walnut crossed with a walnut produces one rose, two walnut, and one singleoffspring
Kernel color in wheat is controlled by 2 pairs of genes (AABB). Determine the color of the offspring with the following genotypes: (Note: 4 contributing alleles – red; 3 contributing alleles – medium red; 2 contributing alleles – intermediate red; 1 contributing allele – red; and 0 – white (AAbb x AaBb, AABb x Aabb, aaBb x Aabb, AABb x aabb, AABb x AaBb) Refer to the problem above, a wheat plant producing medium red seed is crossed with another plant producing intermediate red seed. How many individuals will be? Red Medium red Intermediate red Light red White
In corn plants, a dominant allele (K) allows kernel colour and a recessive allele (k) inhibits kernel colour when homozygous. On a different chromosome, the dominant gene P causes purple kernel colour and the homozygous recessive genotype causes red kernel colour.A true breeding white corn plant was crossed with a purple corn plant, yielding 50% red corn plants and 50% purple corn plants.What are the genotypes of the parental corn plants? Select one: a. KKPp kkpp b. KkPP kkPP c. kkPp KkPp d. KKPP kkPp
The petals of the plant Collinsia parviflora are normally blue, giving the species its common name, blue-eyed Mary. Two pure-breeding lines were obtained from color variants found in nature; the first line had pink petals, and the second line had white petals. The following crosses were made between pure lines, with the results shown: Parents F1 F2 blue × white blue 101 blue, 33 white blue × pink blue 192 blue, 63 pink pink × white blue 272 blue, 121 white, 89 pink a. Explain these results genetically. Define the allele symbols that you use, and show the genetic constitution of the parents, the F1, and the F2 in each cross. b. A cross between a certain blue F2 plant and a certain white F2 plant gave progeny of which 3 8 were blue, 1 8 were pink, and 1 2 were white. What must the genotypes of these two F2 plants have been?
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
In a unique species of plants, flowers may be yellow, blue, red, or mauve. All colors may be true breeding. If plants with blue flowers are crossed to red-flowered plants, all F1 plants have yellow flowers. When these produced an F2 generation, the following ratio was observed: 9/16 yellow: 3/16 blue: 3/16 red: 1/16 mauve In still another cross using true-breeding parents, yellow-flowered plants are crossed with mauve-flowered plants. Again, all F1 plants had yellow flowers and the F2 showed a 9:3:3:1 ratio, as just shown. (a) Describe the inheritance of flower color by defining gene symbols and designating which genotypes give rise to each of the four phenotypes. (b) Determine the F1 and F2 results of a cross between truebreeding red and true-breeding mauve-flowered plants.
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.
A homozygous plant with 20-cm-diameter flowers is crossed with a homozygous plant of the same species that has 40-cm-diameter flowers. The F1 plants all have flowers 30 cm in diameter. In the F2 generation of 512 plants, 2 plants have flowers 20 cm in diameter, 2 plants have flowers 40 cm in diameter, and the remaining 508 plants have flowers of a range of sizes in between. (a) Assuming all alleles involved act additively, how many genes control flower size in this plant? (b) What frequency distribution of flower diameter would you expect to see in the progeny of a backcross between an F1 plant and the large-flowered parent?
