Both Duchenne muscular dystrophy and color blindness are caused by recessive alleles. DMD, unlike color blindness, nearly always occurs in males. Explain why.
In sweet pea plant, an allele for purple flowers (P) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for red flowers (p). An allele for long pollen grains (L) is dominant when paired with a recessive allele for round pollen grain (l). Bateson and Punnett crossed a plant having purple flowers/long pollen grains with one having white/flowers/round pollen grains. All F1 offspring had purple flowers and long pollen grains. Among the F2 generation, the researchers observed the following phenotypes: 296 purple flowers/long pollen grains 19 purple flowers/round pollen grains 27 red flowers/long pollen grains 85 red flowers/round pollen grains What is the best explanation for these results?
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Huntington disease is a rare, fatal disease that usually develops in the fourth or fifth decade of life. It is caused by a single autosomal dominant allele. A phenotypically normal man in his twenties who has a 2-year-old son of his own learns that his father has developed Huntington disease. What is the probability that he himself will develop the disease? What is the chance that his young son will eventually develop the disease?
Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits An unspecified characteristic controlled by a single gene is examined in pea plants. Only two phenotypic states exist for this trait. One phenotypic state is completely dominant to the other. A heterozygous plant is self-crossed. What proportion of the progeny of plants exhibiting the dominant phenotype is homozygous?
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?
In cats, the allele (B) produces black color but (b) producesyellow color. These alleles are co‐dominant to each other. Aheterozygote produces a tortoise‐shell color. The alleles (B)and (b) are sex‐linked as well. Cross a tortoise‐shell femalewith a yellow male. What percent of their offspring will be yellow? What percent of their offspring will be black? What percent of their offspring will be tortoise shell?
Each box represents a potential offspring. Notice that genotypically speaking, they are all the same. Theyare all heterozygous (genotype) which means their phenotype is dark coloration. So, there is 100% chanceof producing a dark eyed, heterozygous offspring. What if that offspring mated with a light eyedindividual? Can you make a Punnett Square for that?Write the Genotypes and Phenotypes of the parents on the left of the square. Complete the square, thenwrite the potential offspring’s genotypes and phenotypes on the right of the square. Parents: Offspring:Genotypes: phenotypes:  What are the genotypes of the resulting offspring? What are the phenotypes of the resulting offspring?
The production of eye-color pigment in Drosophila requires the dominant allele A. The dominant allele P of asecond independent gene turns the pigment to purple,but its recessive allele leaves it red. A fly producing nopigment has white eyes. Two pure lines were crossedwith the following results:P red-eyed female white-eyed maleF1 purple-eyed femalesred-eyed malesF1 F1purple eyed 38red eyed 38white eyed 28F both males and females: 2Explain this mode of inheritance, and show the genotypesof the parents, the F1, and the F2.
Scurs is an example of a sex-influenced traitin cattle that is dominant in males and recessive in females.A male and a female, neither of which has scurs, producea male offspring with scurs. What are the genotypes of theparents?
For Mendelian inheritance, the nuclear genotype (i.e., the allelesfound on chromosomes in the cell nucleus) directly influences anoffspring’s traits. In contrast, for non-Mendelian inheritance patterns, the offspring’s phenotype cannot be reliably predicted solelyfrom its genotype. For the following traits, what do you need toknow to predict the phenotypic outcome?A. Dwarfism due to a mutant Igf2 alleleB. Snail coiling directionC. Leber hereditary optic neuropathy
As a Drosophila research geneticist, you keep stocksof flies of specific genotypes. You have a fly that hasnormal wings (dominant phenotype). Flies with shortwings are homozygous for a recessive allele of thewing-length gene. You need to know if this fly withnormal wings is pure-breeding or heterozygous forthe wing-length trait. What cross would you do todetermine the genotype, and what results would youexpect for each possible genotype?
Two alleles at one locus produce three distinctphenotypes. Two alleles of two genes lead tofive distinct phenotypes. Two alleles of six geneslead to 13 distinct phenotypes. (These statementsassume that the alleles at any one locus arecodominant or incompletely dominant andthat each gene makes an equal contributionto the phenotype.)a. Derive a formula to express this relationship. (Letn equal the number of genes.)b. Each of the most extreme phenotypes for a traitdetermined by two alleles at one locus are foundin a proportion of 1/4 in the F2 generation. If twoalleles of two genes determine the trait, each extreme phenotype will be present in the F2 as 1/16of the population.In common wheat (Triticum aestivum),kernel color varies from red to white andthe genes controlling the color act additively,that is, alleles for each gene are incompletelydominant and each gene contributes equallyto the color. A true-breeding red variety iscrossed to a true-breeding white variety, and1/256 of the F2…
