You set up an RNAi experiment in worms and you use adult worms instead of L4 worms. How might this affect the observed efficiency of RNAi ( meaning the number of offspring with observable phenotype) for this experiment when counting the progeny? the efficiency will appear lower No observable difference between using L4 or adults. RNAi will not work using adult worms. the efficiency will be higher

Explain how DNA probes with different fluorescence emissionwavelengths can be used in a single FISH experiment to map thelocations of two or more genes. This method is called chromosomepainting. Explain why this is an appropriate term.
Starting with an AA, 2n = 14 genome of Triticum urartu (wild einkorn wheat) and a BB, 2n = 14 genome of Triticum speltoides (wild grass), show a pathway to obtain AABBDD, 2n = 42 Triticum spelta (spelt wheat) that is commonly used in cereals, pasta, and bread.
An Hfr strain is used to map three genes in an interrupted mating experiment. The cross is Hfr/a+b+c+ rif x F-a-b-c- rifr (note that rifr is resistance to the antibiotic rifampicin). The a+ gene is required for the biosynthesis of nutrient A, the b+ gene for nutrient B, and the c+ gene for nutrient C. The cross is initiated at time=0. At various times, the mating mixture is plated out on three different types of medium. Each plate contains minimal medium (MM) plus rifampicin, plus specific supplements that are listed in the table below. The results for each time interval are shown as the number of colonies growing on each plate.An Hfr strain is used to map three genes in an interrupted mating experiment.

DNA from a strain of Bacillus subtilis with the genotype trp+ tyr+ was used to transform a recipient strain with the genotype trp− tyr−. The following numbers of transformed cells were recovered: Genotype Number of transformed cells trp+ tyr− 154 trp− tyr+ 312 trp+ tyr+ 354 What do these results suggest about the linkage of the trp and tyr genes?
You were tasked to conduct a population genetic survey of a diploid insect population. You obtained tissue samples from 20 individuals, ran a starch gel electrophoresis, and stained the gel for lactate dehydrogenase. Below is the result of your gel electrophoresis. You found that there are three alleles and you decided to call them F, M, and S for their fast, medium, and slow mobility on the gel. please explain this in deep. 1) What is the M allele frequency in this population? A) 0.05 b) 0.25 c) 0.30 d) 0.4 e) 0.5 2)Following up the previous question, what is the observed SS genotype frequency in this population? a) 0.1 b) 0.2 3) 0.3 4) 0.4 5) 0.5
You are attempting to genotype a series of cells at gene A through restriction enzyme digestion. You know that the wild type allele “A” has 2 restriction enzyme cutting sites, creating bands that are 100bp, 200bp, and 300bp. A mutation creating allele “a” removes one of these cutting sites, creating bands that are 100bp and 500bp. How many separate bands would you expect to see on a gel for a cell that is heterozygous Aa? please show work. thanks

Boll weevil is a serious pest of cotton crop. Effective control involves applications of chemical insecticides, increasing the cost of production and environmental pollution. The current genetically modified Bt crops have allowed great benefits to farmers but show activity limited to lepidopteran pests. This work reports on procedures adopted for integration and expression of a cry transgene conferring resistance to boll weevil and fall armyworm by using molecular tools. Four Brazilian cotton cultivars were microinjected with a minimal linear cassette generating 1248 putative lines. Complete gene integration was found in only one line (TO-34) containing one copy of crylla detected by Southern blot. Protein was expressed in high concentration at 45 davs after emergence (dae), decreasing by approximately 50% at 90 dae. Toxicity of the cry protein was demonstrated in feeding bioassays revealing 56.7% mortality to boll weevil fed buds and 88.1% mortality to fall armyworm fed leaves. A…
You’re reviewing a manuscript in which the researcher claims that Gene A is more highly expressed than Gene B. The researcher supports their conclusion by noting the higher FPKM values for Gene A. Do you agree? Why or why not?
You have already localized the genes to the same chromosome by deletion mapping, and now decide that the best way to accomplish the mapping is to conduct two simultaneous three-point testcross experiments. The genes you are investigating are as follows: N = round leaves, n = notched leaves; H = smooth stems, h = hairy stems; R = purple flowers, r = red flowers; B = grey seeds, b = black seeds; and Y = green pods, y = yellow pods. Earlier experiments you have done already established that gene B is in the middle of this gene cluster, so you design both three-point test crosses to include that gene. Cross #1 is designed as RrHhBb x rrhhbb while cross #2 is NnBbYy x nnbbyy. The results of both crosses are given in the table below. Based on the information given, determine the arrangement of these five genes including the position of each allele in the heterozygous fly and the distances between each pair of genes. (Hint: treat each experiment separately, knowing that gene B is in the…
