Chapter 14, Problem 11TYPSS

In garden peas, yellow seeds (Y) are dominant to green seeds (y), and inflated pods (I) are dominant to constricted pods (i). Suppose you have crossed YYII parents with yyii parents.

• Draw the F1 Punnett square and predict the expected F1 phenotype(s).

• List the genotype(s) of gametes produced by F1 individuals.

• Draw the F2 Punnett square. Based on this Punnett square, predict the expected phenotype(s) in the F2 generation and the expected frequency of each phenotype.

You carry out a trihybrid cross (a cross in which the parental plants differ for three characters)  between a tall pea plant with round, yellow seeds (TT RR YY) and a short pea plant with wrinkled, green seeds (tt rr yy).  The parental plants are homozygous for all of the three characters. They are crossed to produce the F1 generation. Tall, round, and yellow are the dominant traits for each character. What will be the phenotypes of the F1 generation?
. Consider the imaginary trait, bristles with split-ends, a trait hypothesized to be X-linked dominant. In a cross, the P1 virgin females were homozygous wild type while the males had bristles with split-ends. The F1 84 males were all wild type while the 90 females all had split-ends. In addition, the data for the F2 generation revealed 26 wild type males, 35 wild type females, 29 split-end males and 40 split-end females. Is this what is to be expected? Use chi-square to prove your position.
Imagine you are given two tall plants, but you do not know their genotype (see Figure 16-12). There are three possibilities—they might both be TT or both Tt or one TT and the other Tt. Imagine you cross the two plants, wait for them to produce seeds, and then plant the seeds. If all resulting plants are tall, can you then determine what the genotypes of the two parents are? If approximately half the resulting plants are tall and about half are short, can you then figure out the genotypes of the parents?
