Chapter 2, Problem 29P
In tomato plants, the production of red fruit color is under the control of an allele R. Yellow tomatoes are rr. The dominant phenotype for fruit shape is under the control of an allele T, which produces two lobes. Multilobed fruit, the recessive phenotype, have the genotype tt. Two differ-ent crosses are made between parental plants of unknown genotype and phenotype. Use the progeny phenotype ratios to determine the genotypes and

- Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?arrow_forwardImagine that you are performing a cross involving seed color in garden pea plants. What traits would you expect to observe in the F1 offspring if you cross true-breeding parents with green seeds and yellow seeds? Yellow seed color is dominant over green. a. only yellow-green seeds b. only yellow seeds c. 1:1 yellow seeds:green seeds d. 1:3 green seeds:yellow seedsarrow_forwardIn radishes, flower color may be red, purple, or white. The edible portion of the radish may be long or oval. When only flower color is studied, no dominance is evident, and red x white crosses yield all purple. Determine the appropriate allele symbols and indicate which genotypes lead to which phenotypes. If the F1 purple plants described above are interbred, what will be the genotype and phenotype ratios in the F2 generation? Regarding radish shape, long is dominant to oval in the typical Mendelian fashion. What will be the phenotype ratios in the F2 generation of a cross between a true-breeding red, long radish and a white, oval radish?arrow_forward

- a. A variety of fruit bearing plants with the dominant allele A produces cream-coloured fruit while aa plants produce pink or red fruit. Red fruit is produced if allele B is present, and pink fruit is produced when the genotype is bb.

Assume that fur colour is controlled by a single gene with multiple alleles in a dominance series where black (B1) > brown (B2) > red (B3) > gray (B4). Give the genotypes of two phenotypically different heterozygotes that when crossed produce offspring with the phenotypic ratio of 1 red : 2 black : 1 brown.arrow_forward.
