A large, genetically heterogeneous group of tomato plants was usedas the original breeding stock by two different breeders, named Maryand Hector. Each breeder was given 50 seeds and began an artificialselection strategy, much like the one described in the figure. Theseeds were planted, and the breeders selected the 10 plants with thehighest mean tomato weights as the breeding stock for the next generation. This process was repeated over the course of 12 growing seasons, and the following data were obtained: Mean Weight of Tomatoes (pounds)Year Mary’s Tomatoes Hector’s Tomatoes1 0.7 0.82 0.9 0.93 1.1 1.24 1.2 1.35 1.3…

Half of the worlds population eats rice at least twice a day. Much of this rice is grown in flooded conditions, and different strains of rice are tolerant (survive) or intolerant (die) under these conditions. Rice breeders used genetic crosses to test whether tolerance to flooding is a dominant trait. Researchers used three true-breeding flood-tolerant strains, FR143, BKNFR, and Kurk, and two true-breeding flood- intolerant strains, IR42 and NB, in the crosses. Results were obtained from three sets of crosses and are reported in the Table below: Results of cross of F1 to tolerant parent: F1 plants were crossed with the tolerant parent of the cross.

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) Show the solution through punnett square. Refer to the problem above, a wheat plant producing medium red seed is crossed with another plant producing intermediate red seed.

A population sample of 300 individuals is studied for the electrophoretic mobility of an enzyme that varies according to the genotype determined by 2 alleles, E and T of a single gene. The results are 7 individuals with genotype EE, 106 with genotype ET, and 187 with genotype TT. What are the allele frequencies of E and T, and what are the expected numbers of the 3 genotypes if random mating is assumed?
In eggplants, fruit color is due to two alleles with the Purple allele (CP) incompletely dominant over White (CW). Plants that are heterozygous for this allele produce light violet colored fruit. A biologist surveys a field of eggplants that has been left alone for several years, allowing the eggplants to reproduce and grow without harvesting or disturbance. She finds that 600 of the plants make purple fruits, 200 make light violet fruits, and 200 produce white fruits. Calculate p (fraction of CPalleles in the populations): Calculate q (fraction of CWalleles in the populations): If this population of plants is at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, what fractions (round to two decimal places) of the next generation of egg plants will produce Purple, White, and Violet fruits? Purple: Violet: White: If the frequency of white alleles was actually much higher in next generation than expected, and continued to increase in future generations, and the population stays relatively large, what type of…
Consider a greenhouse with 500 carnation plants. 280 plants are homozygous for the red allele (RR), 120 plants are heterozygous (Rr), and 100 plants are homozygous for the white allele (rr). What is the frequency of the red allele? What is the frequency of the white allele?
The height of the seed head in wheat at maturity is determined by several genes. In one variety, the head is just 9 inches above the ground; in another, it is 33 inches above the ground. Plants from the 9-inch variety were crossed to plants from the 33-inch variety. Among the F1, the seed head was 21 inches above the ground. After self-fertilization, the F1 plantsproduced an F2 population in which 9-inch and 33-inch plants each appeared with a frequency of 1/256. (a) How many genes are involved in the determination of seed head height in these strains of wheat? (b) How much does each allele of these genes contribute toseed head height? (c) If a 21-inch F2 plant were crossed to a 9-inch plant, how often wouldyou expect 18-inch wheat to occur in the progeny?
