Summary Introduction

To review:

The conclusion regarding the allelic relationship between the unspotted and spotted phenotypes of dominant nature and analyze the original plant genotype, which had spotted flowers along with orange color.

Introduction:

Pollination is a process of the transfer of the pollen grain from the anther of the male plant to the stigma of the female plant. Self-pollination is a process of the transfer of the pollen grains from the anther of a plant to the stigma of the same plant. The seed collected in the wild was used for the growth of spotted orange flowers, which was then self-fertilized. The resulting offspring included 88 spotted orange, 34 spotted yellow, 32 orange without spots, and 8 yellow without spot flowers.

EXAMPLE PROBLEM A plant with orange, spotted flowers was grown in the greenhouse from a seed collected in the wild. The plant was self-pollinated and gave rise to the following progeny: 88 orange with spots, 34 yellow with spots, 32 orange with no spots, and 8 yellow with no spots. What can you conclude about the dominance relationships of the alleles responsible for the spotted and unspotted phenotypes? What can you conclude about the genotype of the original plant that had orange, spotted flowers?
incomplete dominance   What is the phenotype of the plant with RR genotype?  What is the color of a plant with R'R' genotype? What is the color of a plant with genotype RR'? A pink-flowered snapdragon was crossed with a white-flowered snapdragon. What is the probability of producing a pink-flowered plant? What cross will produce the most pink-flowered plants?
Chi-square Test In the pea plants use by Gregor Mendel in his study, the purple flower color is dominant over white,and the axial position on a branch is dominant over terminal. A plant believed to be heterozygouswas selfed and produced flowers with the following phenotypes: 23 white terminal68 white axial81 purple terminal187 purple axial a. assign alleles to the different traitspurple __________ axial ___________white ___________ terminal _______ b. refer to the image attached
