Two organisms, with the genotypes FFEe and FfEE, are mated. Assuming independent assortment of the F/f and E/e genes:
1) Provide the genotypes of all possible offspring from this cross and use the rules of probability to calculate the chance of each genotype occurring.
2) Provide the phenotypic and genotypic ratios of the possible offspring.
Two organisms, with genotypes BbDD and BBDd, aremated. Assuming independent assortment of the B/b andD/d genes, write the genotypes of all possible offspringfrom this cross and use the rules of probability to calculate the chance of each genotype occurring.
The genotype of F1 individuals in a tetrahybrid cross is AaBbCcDd X AaBbCcDd. Assuming independent assortment of these four genes, what are the probabilities that F2 offspring will have the following genotypes?

- In corn (Zea mays), the wild type trait is for kernels to be round; some kernels are shrunken (S), which is caused by recessive, mutant alleles of various genes. You obtain five strains of corn with shrunken kernels, and conduct pairwise crosses between all five strains (1x1, 1x2, 1,3, etc). The results are summarized in the matrix below: if the offspring have the wild type trait, round, then they are represented with a "+"; if the offspring have the trait caused by recessive, mutant alleles, shrunken, they are marked with "S" 1 2 3 4 5 1 S 2 + S 3 + 4 5 + S S S S S S + + + S a.
