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?

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?
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
In the Pea plant, tall plant height (T) is dominant over short (t). Pure-breeding tall and short plants are crossed. A) If the F1 is self-crossed and 400 F2 plants are raised, how many would be expected in each phenotypic class? B) How many of the F2 would be expected to be pure breeding when selfed?
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?
Assume that plant weight is determined by a pair of alleles at each of two independently assorting loci (A and a, B and b) that are additive in their effects. Further assume that each allele represented by an uppercase letter contributes 4 g to weight and that each allele represented by a lowercase letter contributes 1 g to weight. a. If a plant with genotype AA BB is crossed with a plant with genotype aa bb, what weights are expected in the F1 progeny? b. What is the distribution of weight expected in the F2 progeny?
Assume the height in a particular plant is determined by two pairs of unlinked polygenes, each effective allele contributes 5cm to a base height of 10cm. What are the heights of each parent? What height is to be expected in the F1 if there are no environmental effects? What is the expected phenotypic ratio in the F2
Given a cross between these two parents: BbCcDDEEFfGgHhjj x BbCcddEeFfGgHHjj where traits B, E, H, J exhibit Mendelian inheritance; C, and F exhibit incomplete dominance; D, and G exhibit co-dominance answer the following: How many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?
Given a cross between these two parents: BbCcDDEEFfGgHhjj x BbCcddEeFfGgHHjj where traits B, E, H, J exhibit Mendelian inheritance; C, and F exhibit incomplete dominance; D, and G exhibit co-dominance answer the following: What proportion of the offspring will phenotypically resemble the first parent? What proportion of the offspring will genotypically resemble the second parent? How many phenotypes can be expected from the cross?
Assume that smooth seed coats are dominant over rough seed coat. If two pea plants that are both Heterozygous for seed coats are crossed, what do you expect in the offspring (the f1 generation)? Specifically, what genotypes, what phenotypes, and in what ratios? (Use S for the smooth seed coat and s for the rough seed coat.) (Again, it is helpful to write out all the possible genotypes and give the phenotype for each genotype before answering the specific question.) Be careful in writing capital S and lower case.
In flowers, purple flower color is dominant and denoted by "P" while white flower color is recessive and is denoted by "p". In a monohybrid cross between 2 heterozygous purple flowers, what is the expected phenotypic offspring ratio?
You start a cross with a true-breeding red-eyed troll and a true-breeding white-eyed troll, and then cross the F1 offspring to make the F2 generation. In the F2 generation, you collect 3 red-eyed trolls, 8 white-eyed trolls, and 5 pink-eyed trolls. Use a chi-square test to evaluate whether the data matches your expectation if the trait is controlled by a single gene with incomplete dominance. In the spaces below, enter the expected number of offspring in each phenotypic group that you would use to calculate your chi square. Report your expected values to the nearest 0.01. Expected Number of Pink-eyed trolls Expected Number of Red-eyed trolls Expected Number of White-eyed trolls Calculate your chi-square test and answer the following questions: How many degrees of freedom do you have in this test Do you reject the null hypothesis? Yes or no?
