shows the results of a cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant. a. What phenotypes and proportions will be produced if a tall F1 plant is backcrossed to the short parent? b. What phenotypes and proportions will be produced if a tall F1 plant is backcrossed to the tall parent?
In peas, tall is dominant over dwarf. If a plant homozygous for tall is crossed with one homozygous for dwarf :
a. What will be the genotype(s) (use the initial of your last name) and phenotype (s) of the F1 plants?
b. If the F1 is grown the next season, predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes.
c. If you cross the F1 to the tall parent, what phenotype will result of the cross? What will be the ratio of the genotype?
d. If you cross the F1 to the short parent, what phenotype will result of the cross? What will be the ratio of the genotype?
In a parental cross between a true-breeding, homozygous purple-flowered pea plant and a true breeding homozygous white-flowered plant, the F1 generation will
A. all be white
B. 3: 1 ratio of white to purple
C. 3: 1 ratio of purple to white
D. all be purple

- Suppose that a compound attractive to pollinators is produced by a plant in a pathway encoded by genes one (O) and two (T). You have obtained two pure lines of plants, one that produces the compound and one that does not (OOTT and oott, respectively). You cross them to obtain F1 plants that are heterozygous at both loci. (a) Use a branch diagram to visualize the possible outcomes of a cross between two F1 plants. (b) Calculate the expected proportion of offspring that will produce the attractant if this is a case of duplicate recessive epistasis. (c) What is the expected proportion of offspring that will produce attractant if this is a case of duplicate dominance?arrow_forwardpicture shows the results of a cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant. Q. What phenotypes and proportions will be produced if a tall F1 plant is backcrossed to the tall parent?arrow_forwardYou perform a cross between two true-breeding strains of zucchini, One has green fruit and the other has yellow fruit. The F1 plants are all green, but when these are crossed, the F2 plants consist of 9 green: 7 yellow. A.
