(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

(a) All the possible genotype of mystery pea plant. (b) The cross that can be done to determine the exact genotype.(c) The way in which prediction can be done for the possible genotype and why that method is not called performing a cross. (d) The way in which the result of the cross and the prediction will help in determining the genotype of the mystery plant.

Introduction:

Genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism based on single or multiple traits. It helps in deciphering the type of progeny that would be observed in the future generations. The genotype determines the phenotype of the organism and there can be dominant and recessive genes in the genotype. Dominant genes are those genes that are expressed in the heterozygous state and the recessive genes are those that are not expressed in the heterozygous state.

To determine: All the possible genotype of a mystery pea plant.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The cross that can be done to determine the exact genotype.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way in which prediction can be done for the possible genotype and why that method is not called “performing a cross”.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way in which the result of the cross and the prediction will help in determining the genotype of the mystery plant.

In sweet peas, the synthesis of purple anthocyanin pigment in the petals is controlled by two genes, B and D. What petal color would you expect in a pure breeding plant unable to catalyze the first reaction? Indicate the genotype and phenotype.   2. What petal color would you expect in a pure breeding plant unable to catalyze the second reaction? Indicate the genotype and phenotype.   3. If plants 1 and 2 are crossed, what petal color would the F1 plants have? Indicate the genotype and phenotype. 4. What ratio of purple : blue : white plants would you expect in the F2? Indicate the genotypes, phenotypes, and the F2 phenotypic ratio.
a. State a hypothesis explaining the inheritance of flower color in painted tongues. b. Assign genotypes to the parents, F₁ progeny, and F2 progeny for all five crosses. c. In a cross between true-breeding yellow and true-breeding lavender plants, all of the F1 progeny are bronze. If you used F₁ plants to produce and F2 generation, what phenotypes in what ratios would you expect? Are there any genotypes that might produce a phenotype that you cannot predict from earlier experiments, and if so, how might this alter the phenotypic ratios among the F2 progeny?
Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion to all parts Two true-breeding varieties of maize, one 11 cm high and the other 47 cm high were crossed and the resultant F1 hybrids were then crossed to generate the F2 . In the F2 there were a total of 13,923 plants with a continuous variation in heights between the two extremes and with only 3 plants as large as 47 cm high and 5 plants of 11 cm high. a) How many i) genes and ii) how many alleles are involved in determining height in this plant? b) What is the contribution of each dominant allele to the phenotype in cm?
