QUESTION 31 You have a pure breeding plant with red flowers, yellow seeds and red-veined leaves. You cross this with another pure breeding plant that has white flowers, pink seeds and yellow leaf veins. All of the offspring (F1) have white flowers, yellow seeds and orange leaf veins. Assuming all three loci are independently assorting, use this information to answer the following question: If two F1 offspring are crossed with each other, what proportion of the F2 offspring would have white flowers and pink seeds? O a. 9/16 Ob.7/16 OC. 5/16 O d. 3/16 O e. 1/16

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?
Variations on a Theme by Mendel Pea plants usually have white or red flowers. A strange pea-plant variant is found that has pink flowers. A selfcross of this plant yields the following phenotypes: 30 red flowers 62 pink flowers 33 white flowers What are the genotypes of the parents? What is the genotype of the progeny with red flowers?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Two traits are examined simultaneously in a cross of two pure-breeding pea-plant varieties. Pod shape can be either swollen or pinched. Pea color can be either green or yellow. A plant with the traits swollen and green is crossed with a plant with the traits pinched and yellow, and a resulting F1 plant is self-crossed. A total of 640 F2 progeny are phenotypically categorized as follows: 360 swollen yellow 120 swollen green 120 pinched yellow 40 pinched green a. What is the phenotypic ratio observed for pod shape? Pea color? b. What is the phenotypic ratio observed for both traits considered together? c. What is the dominance relationship for pod shape? Pea color? d. Deduce the genotypes of the P1 and F1 generations.
I. In tomatoes, red fruit is dominant to yellow fruit,and purple stems are dominant to green stems. Theprogeny from one mating consisted of 305 red fruit,purple stem plants; 328 red fruit, green stem plants;110 yellow fruit, purple stem plants; and 97 yellowfruit, green stem plants. What were the genotypesof the parents in this cross?
Two genes in tomatoes are 61 mu apart; normal fruit (F) isdominant to fasciated fruit (f ), and normal number of leaves(Lf ) is dominant to leafy (lf ). A true-breeding plant with anormal number of leaves and fruit was crossed to a leafy plantwith fasciated fruit. The F1 offspring were then crossed to leafyplants with fasciated fruit. If this cross produced 600 offspring,what are the expected numbers of plants in each of the fourpossible categories: normal leaf number, normal fruit; normalleaf number, fasciated fruit; leafy, normal fruit; and leafy,fasciated fruit?
In tomatoes, regular leaves (L) are multilobed and serrated and potato leaves (l) are broad, smooth, and single (Image 1). Red fruit (F) is dominant to yellow fruit (f). A cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1 individuals are then crossed with one another. Complete a Punnett square to determine the expected F2 progeny on the basis of Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the alleles for one gene segregate independently of the alleles for other genes during gamete formation.
In cucumbers, orange fruit color (R) is dominant over cream fruit color (r). A cucumber plant homozygous for orange fruit is crossed with a plant homozygous for cream fruit. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. Q. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a backcross between the F1 and the orange-fruited parent. .
Two genes in tomatoes are 61 mu apart; normal fruit (F) is dominantto fasciated (flattened) fruit ( f ), and normal number of leaves(Lf ) is dominant to leafy (lf ). A true-breeding plant with normalleaves and fruit was crossed to a leafy plant with fasciated fruit.The F1 offspring were then crossed to leafy plants with fasciatedfruit. If this cross produced 600 offspring, what are the expectednumbers of plants in each of the four possible categories: normalleaves, normal fruit; normal leaves, fasciated fruit; leafy, normalfruit; and leafy, fasciated fruit?
Some sweet-pea plants have purple flowers and others have white flowers. A homozygous variety of sweet pea that has purple flowers is crossed with a homozygous variety that has white flowers. All the F1have purple flowers. When these F1 self-fertilize, the F2 appear in a ratio of 916 purple to 716 white. a. Give genotypes for the purple and white flowers in these crosses.
Three genes in fruit flies affect a particular trait, andone dominant allele of each gene is necessary to get awild-type phenotype.a. What phenotypic ratios would you predict amongthe progeny if you crossed triply heterozygous flies?b. You cross a particular wild-type male in successionwith three tester strains. In the cross with one testerstrain (AA bb cc), only 1/4 of the progeny are wildtype. In the crosses involving the other two testerstrains (aa BB cc and aa bb CC), half of the progeny are wild type. What is the genotype of thewild-type male?
