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?
Two genes, designated A and B, are located 10 mu from each other.A third gene, designated C, is located 15 mu from B and 5 mufrom A. The parental generation consisting of AA bb CC and aaBB cc individuals were crossed to each other. The F1 heterozygoteswere then testcrossed to aa bb cc individuals. If we assume nodouble crossovers occur, what percentage of offspring would youexpect with the following genotypes?A. Aa Bb CcB. aa Bb CcC. Aa bb cc
. What is the probability of producing a child that willphenotypically resemble either one of the two parentsin the following four crosses? How many phenotypically different kinds of progeny could potentiallyresult from each of the four crosses?a. Aa Bb Cc Dd × aa bb cc ddb. aa bb cc dd × AA BB CC DDc. Aa Bb Cc Dd × Aa Bb Cc Ddd. aa bb cc dd × aa bb cc dd
In most two-factor crosses involving linked genes, we cannot tellif a double crossover between the two genes has occurred becausethe offspring will inherit the nonrecombinant pattern of alleles.How does the inability to detect double crossovers affect thecalculation of map distance? Is map distance underestimated oroverestimated because of our inability to detect double crossovers?Explain your answer.
We have dealt mainly with only two genes, but the sameprinciples hold for more than two genes. Consider thefollowing cross:A/a ; B/b ; C/c ; D/d ; E/e × a/a ; B/b ; c/c ; D/d ; e/ea. What proportion of progeny will phenotypicallyresemble (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?b. What proportion of progeny will be genotypically thesame as (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?Assume independent assortment.
Consider this cross in pea plants: Tt Rr yy Aa × Tt rr Yy Aa, whereT = tall, t = dwarf, R = round, r = wrinkled, Y = yellow, y = green,A = axial, a = terminal. What is the expected phenotypic outcomeof this cross? Have one group of students solve this problem bymaking one big Punnett square, and have another group solve it bymaking four single-gene Punnett squares and using the multiplication method. Time each other to see who gets done first.
. A snapdragon plant that bred true for white petals wascrossed with a plant that bred true for purple petals, andall the F1 had white petals. The F1 was selfed. Among theF2, three phenotypes were observed in the followingnumbers:white 240solid purple 61spotted purple 19Total 320a. Propose an explanation for these results, showinggenotypes of all generations (make up and explain yoursymbols).b. A white F2 plant was crossed with a solid purple F2plant, and the progeny werewhite 50%solid purple 25%spotted purple 25%What were the genotypes of the F2 plants crossed?
A true-breeding pea plant with round and green seeds was crossedto a true-breeding plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds. Roundand yellow seeds are the dominant traits. The F1 plants wereallowed to self-fertilize. What are the following probabilities forthe F2 generation?A. An F2 plant with wrinkled, yellow seeds.B. Three out of three F2 plants with round, yellow seeds.C. Five F2 plants in the following order: two have round, yellowseeds; one has round, green seeds; and two have wrinkled,green seeds.D. An F2 plant will not have round, yellow seeds
. In 1919, Calvin Bridges began studying an X-linkedrecessive mutation causing eosin-colored eyes inDrosophila. Within an otherwise true-breedingculture of eosin-eyed flies, he noticed rare variantsthat had much lighter cream-colored eyes. By intercrossing these variants, he was able to make a truebreeding cream-eyed stock. Bridges now crossedmales from this cream-eyed stock with true-breedingwild-type females. All the F1 progeny had red (wildtype) eyes. When F1 flies were intercrossed, the F2progeny were 104 females with red eyes, 52 maleswith red eyes, 44 males with eosin eyes, and14 males with cream eyes. Assume that thesenumbers represent an 8:4:3:1 ratio.a. Formulate a hypothesis to explain the F1 and F2results, assigning phenotypes to all possiblegenotypes.b. What do you predict in the F1 and F2 generations if the parental cross is between truebreeding eosin-eyed males and true-breedingcream-eyed females?c. What do you predict in the F1 and F2 generationsif the parental cross is…
A researcher crosses two white-flowered lines ofAntirrhinum plants as follows and obtains the followingresults:pure line 1 × pure line 2↓F1 all whiteF1 × F1↓F2 131 white29 reda. Deduce the inheritance of these phenotypes; useclearly defined gene symbols. Give the genotypes ofthe parents, F1, and F2.b. Predict the outcome of crosses of the F1 with eachparental line.
When Calvin Bridges observed a large number of offspring from a cross of white-eyed female Drosophila tored-eyed males, he found very rare white-eyed femalesand red-eyed males among the offspring. He was ableto show that these exceptions resulted from nondisjunction, such that the white-eyed females had received twoXs from the egg and a Y from the sperm, while thered-eyed males had received no sex chromosome fromthe egg and an X from the sperm. What progeny wouldhave arisen from these same kinds of nondisjunctionalevents if they had occurred in the male parent? Whatwould their eye colors have been?
In peas, purple flowers are dominant to white. If a purple-flowered, heterozygous plant were crossed with a white-flowered plant, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F1F1offspring? If two of the purple-flowered F1F1 offspring were randomly selected and crossed, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F2F2 offspring?
