In the Roselle plant, the dominant allele of gene 'A' codes for a pink flower and the recessive form codes for yellow flowers, while the dominant form of gene 'B' codes
for serrated leaves, while the recessive form codes for smooth leaves. If the genes are trans linked, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes and the
respective ratios when plants heterozygous for both genes are test crossed?
In the common daisy, genes A and B control flower color. Both genes have a dominant allele (A or B) and a recessive allele (a or b). At least one copy of each dominant allele is required for flowers to be colorful instead of white. (Explain and Justify your answers)

In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the following alleles were used in a cross: T = presence of trichomes t = absence of trichomes D = tall plants d = dwarf plants W = waxy cuticle w = nonwaxy A = presence of purple anthocyanin pigment a = absence (white) The T/t and D/d loci are linked 26 m.u. apart on chromosome 1, whereas the W/w and A/a loci are linked 8 m.u. apart on chromosome 2. A pure-breeding double-homozygous recessive trichomeless nonwaxy plant is crossed with another pure-breeding double-homozygous recessive dwarf white plant. a. What will be the appearance of the F1? b. Sketch the chromosomes 1 and 2 of the parents and the F1, showing the arrangement of the alleles.c. If the F1 is testcrossed, what proportion of the progeny will have all four recessive phenotypes?
