You are given a pea that produces round, yellow seeds (both dominant traits), but its genotype is unknown. You conduct a testcross to determine the genotype at both loci, and find that the offspring have the following ratios of phenotypes: % round, yellow, % round, green, % wrinkled, yellow, % wrinkled, green 1. What are all the possible genotypes of a round, yellow pea? Assume shape is controlled by the R locus, and color is controlled by the Y locus. 2. Break this down to the single gene level by answering the following questions: a. What is the proportion of round to wrinkled offspring? b. What is the proportion of yellow to green offspring?

. In four-o’clocks, the allele for red flowers is incompletely dominant to the allele for white flowers, so heterozygotes have pink flowers. What ratios of flower colors would you expect among the offspring of the following crosses: (a) pink × pink, (b) white × pink, (c) red × red, (d) red × pink, (e) white × white, and (f) red × white? If you specifically wanted to produce pink flowers, which of these crosses would be most efficient?
Assume that the length of a type of cucumber at maturity is controlled by two genes (A and B), each of which has two alleles. The A and B alleles each add 3 inches of cucumber growth, while the a and b alleles add only 1 inches.

You are given a pea that produces round, yellow seeds (both dominant traits, controlled by the R and Y loci respectively), but its genotype is unknown. You conduct a testcross to determine the genotype at both loci, and find that the offspring have the following ratios of phenotypes: ¼ round, yellow, ¼ round, green, ¼ wrinkled, yellow, ¼ wrinkled, green What is the genotype of the individual of known genotype in the testcross?
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 one study, Gregor Mendel crossed yellow-seeded, tall garden pea with a green-seeded,short garden pea. The F1 offspring were all yellow-seeded and tall. Assumingindependent assortment of these two genes, what phenotypes and proportions did he finamong F2 offspring when the F1 garden peas are allowed to fertilize themselves? Show the solution with punnett square.
: In poultry, the genotype-phenotype relationships for comb shape are R/– P/–, walnut; R/–p/p, rose, r/r P/–, pea; and r/r p/p, single. What will be the comb characters of the offspring ofthe following crosses?a) A walnut crossed with a single produces offspring that are walnut, rose, pea, and single.b) A rose crossed with a walnut produces offspring that are walnut, rose, pea, and single.c) A rose crossed with a pea produces five walnut and six rose offspring.d) A walnut crossed with a walnut produces one rose, two walnut, and one singleoffspring
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.
A sugarcane plant with yellow pollen and wavy leaves is crossed with a plant with yellow pollen andsmooth leaves. Seed are collected and germinated. The following results are obtained in the progeny:153 yellow pollen, wavy leaves145 yellow pollen, smooth leaves48 white pollen, wavy leaves 51 white pollen, smooth leavesa. For each locus (trait), assign appropriate symbols for the alleles of the genes, indicate thedominance interaction between the two alleles, and give all possible genotypes and theirassociated phenotypes.b. Give the genotypes of the parents of this cross.c. Give the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the progeny of this cross. Please use aPunnett square to visualize your cross. Thank you very much for your assistance as it is greatly appreciated, a like is guaranteed if all subquestions are answered.
In pea plants, the "L" allele, which indicates smooth seeds, is dominant over the "l" allele, which indicates rough seeds, and the "A" allele, which indicates yellow color, is dominant over the "a" allele, which indicates green color. If a yellow smooth pure variety is crossed with a green wrinkled pure variety. • What is the genotype and phenotype of the first filial generation (F1)? • Indicate the phenotypes of the second generation (F2) and the proportion of each of them that results from the self-fertilization of F1 plants.
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring? Construct the punnet square, then identify the following: 1. Parents’ genes?2. Parents’ traits?3. Genes (genotype)?4. Shape, color? (phenotype)?5. Genotypic ratio?6. Phenotypic ratio?
