You are working on the genetics of flower color traits from a plant. After collecting various color mutants, You do a number of crosses, eventually obtaining F2 data, from which you can now infer modes of inheritance for each cross (i.e., each system of alleles and/or genes). Cross F2 Outcomes 51 medium purple, 34 light purple, 32 dark purple, 9 very dark purple, 8 white 50 purple, 19 blue, 18 red, 6 white 48 purple. 24 blue, 23 white D 45 purple, 36 pink 104 white. 24 purple 46 purple, 15 white G 48 light purple, 24 white, 23 purple (Choose) (Choose) (Choose) [Choose]

A cross between two pea plants, both of which grewfrom yellow round seeds, gave the following numbersof seeds: 156 yellow round and 54 yellow wrinkled.What are the genotypes of the parent plants? (Yellowand round are dominant traits.)
A strain of plants has a mean height of 24 cm. A second strain ofthe same species from a different geographical region also has a mean height of 24 cm. When plants from the two strains arecrossed together, the F1 plants are the same height as the parentplants. However, the F2 generation shows a wide range ofheights; the majority are like the P1 and F1 plants, but approximately4 of 1000 are only 12 cm high, and about 4 of 1000 are36 cm high. Question: What mode of inheritance is occurring here?
Considering the Mendelian traits round versus wrinkledand yellow versus green, consider the crosses belowand determine the genotypes of the parental plants byanalyzing the phenotypes of their offspring.Parental Plants Offspring(a) round, yellow * round, yellow 3/4 round, yellow1/4 wrinkled, yellow(b) wrinkled, yellow * round, yellow 6/16 wrinkled, yellow2/16 wrinkled, green6/16 round, yellow2/16 round, green(c) round, yellow * round, yellow 9/16 round, yellow3/16 round, green3/16 wrinkled, yellow1/16 wrinkled, green(d) round, yellow * wrinkled, green 1/4 round, yellow1/4 round, green1/4 wrinkled, yellow1/4 wrinkled, green
A trait in garden peas involves the curling of leaves. A two-factorcross was made by crossing a plant with yellow pods and curlingleaves to a wild-type plant with green pods and normal leaves. AllF1 offspring had green pods and normal leaves. The F1 plants werethen crossed to plants with yellow pods and curling leaves. Thefollowing results were obtained: 117 green pods, normal leaves115 yellow pods, curling leaves78 green pods, curling leaves80 yellow pods, normal leavesA. Conduct a chi square analysis to determine if these two genesare linked.B. If they are linked, calculate the map distance between the twogenes. How accurate do you think this calculated distance is?
In corn, a triple heterozygote was obtained carrying themutant alleles s (shrunken), w (white aleurone), andy (waxy endosperm), all paired with their normal wildtype alleles. This triple heterozygote was testcrossed, andthe progeny contained 116 shrunken, white; 4 fully wildtype; 2538 shrunken; 601 shrunken, waxy; 626 white;2708 white, waxy; 2 shrunken, white, waxy; and 113 waxy.a. Determine if any of these three loci are linked and,if so, show map distances.b. Show the allele arrangement on the chromosomesof the triple heterozygote used in the testcross.c. Calculate interference, if appropriate.

. Consider the genotypes of two lines of chickens: thepure-line mottled Honduran is i/i ; D/D ; M/M ; W/W, andthe pure-line leghorn is I/I ; d/d ; m/m ; w/w, whereI = white feathers, i = colored feathersD = duplex comb, d = simplex combM = bearded, m = beardlessW = white skin, w = yellow skinThese four genes assort independently. Starting withthese two pure lines, what is the fastest and mostconvenient way of generating a pure line that has coloredfeathers, has a simplex comb, is beardless, and has yellowskin? Make sure that you showa. the breeding pedigree.b. the genotype of each animal represented.c. how many eggs to hatch in each cross, and why thisnumber.d. why your scheme is the fastest and the mostconvenient
