You are handed a mystery pea plant with tall stems and axial flowers and asked to determine its genotype as quickly as possible. You know that the allele for tall stems (T) i dominant to that of the dwarf stems (t) and that allele for axial flowers (A) is dominant to that for terminal flowers (a).

The text outlines some of the problems Frederick William I encountered in his attempt to breed tall Potsdam Guards. a. Why were the results he obtained so different from those obtained by Mendel with short and tall pea plants? b. Why were most of the children shorter than their tall parents?
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
You are handed a mystery pea plant with tall stems and axial flowers and asked to determine its genotype as quickly as possible. You know that the allele for tall stems (T) is dominant to that for dwarf stems (t) and that the allele for axial flowers (A) is dominant to that for terminal flowers (a). Identify all the possible genotypes for your mystery plant. Describe the one cross you would do in your garden to determine the exact genotype of your mystery plant. While waiting for the results of your cross, you predict the results for each possible genotype listed in part a. Explain how you do this and why this is not called “performing a cross.” Explain how the results of your cross and your predictions will help you learn the genotype of your mystery plant. Question is also in the picture.
From a presumed testcross of 2 plants of genotype Aa x aa (in which A represents red and a represents white petals on a plant) we get 5000 red petal plants, and 5400 white petals plants. Using the Chi-squared test, what chi-squared value do we get for this?
You crossed two true-breeding lines of violet-flowered and white-flowered peas. Is it possible to establish a true-breeding line of the genotype found in the offspring of your cross? Why or why not?
If Purple (P) flowers is dominant over white (p) flowers, and tall (T) pea plants are dominant over short (t) pea plants, a cross between a heterozygous tall, heterozygous purple flowering plant with a heterozygous tall, white flowering plant would produce what fraction of homozygous Tall homozygous white flowering plants?
Two corn plants are studied. One is resistant (R) and the other is susceptible (S) to a certainpathogenic fungus. The following crosses are made, with the results shown: a) What can you conclude about the location of the genetic determinants of R and S? b) What other criteria can be used to determine if a certain trait follows the pattern shown in(a)?
) In a dihybrid cross, a true breeding short white flowered plant is crossed with a non-true breeding tall purple flowered plant. Both tall and purple are dominant traits. What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring generation and what are the ratios of each? For full credit, you must show all work.
In Figure 3-11, if the input genotypes were a • B and A • b,what would be the genotypes colored blue?
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?
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?
If you had seeds that are round, and you know this is a dominant trait, how can you determine if the round seeds have the genotype SS or Ss? Explain by showing the possible outcomes of this test.
