- Females of wild-type Strain A and males of mutant Strain B, as well as females of mutant Strain B and males of wild-type Strain A, make reciprocal crosses. Explain why reciprocal crosses are needed in genetics experiments involving Drosophila fruit flies.arrow_forwardA homozygous strain of corn that produces yellow kernels is crossed with another homozygous strain that produces purple kernels.

- In the fruit fly, dumpy wings (d) and purple eyes (p) are encoded by mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild type traits; long wings (d+) and red eyes (p+). These two genes are on the same chromosome. In a particular lab, two researchers Walt and Jesse crossed a fly homozygous for dumpy wings and purple eyes with a fly homozygous for the wild type traits. The F1 progeny, which had long wings and red eyes, was then crossed with flies that had dumpy wings and purple eyes. Unfortunately, the progeny of this cross somehow escaped. To prevent their other projects from contamination, they decided to spend an exceptionally boring hour in the lab catching and counting the progeny and found the following: long wings, red eyes – 482 dumpy wings, purple eyes – 473 long wings, purple eyes – 23 dumpy wings, red eyes - 22 What is the genetic distance between these two loci? a. 4.5 cM b. 55 cM c. 45 cM d. 49.5 cM e. 4.7 cMarrow_forwardExplain why it is possible for the proband in the following pedigree to have children of blood types A, B, and AB.

- In barley, a self-fertilizing species that can be cross-fertilized, two true-breeding strains withvirescent leaves occur. In strain A, the trait is caused by a cytoplasmic gene while in strainB it is by a recessive chromosomal gene. Illustrate the crossing of each F1 in (a) to each of the paternal strains What phenotypes would you expect among theprogeny, and in what proportions in each of the following? Illustrate your crosses below,indicate and the female and male parent for each cross, and write the phenotype of allthe parents and offspring(s).arrow_forwardYou self-fertilize an F1 plant to produce the F2 generation. Based on Mendelian principles of inheritance, what fraction of the F2 generation do you expect to be short with round, green seeds? HINT: Solving this problem will require a very large Punnett square (8 x 8), but you can easily solve it using the Multiplication Rulearrow_forward. In a particular kind of ornamental flower, the wildtype flower color is deep purple, and the plants aretrue-breeding. In one true-breeding mutant stock, theflowers have a reduced pigmentation, resulting in alavender color. In a different true-breeding mutantstock, the flowers have no pigmentation and are thuswhite. When a lavender-flowered plant from the firstmutant stock was crossed to a white-flowered plantfrom the second mutant stock, all the F1 plants hadpurple flowers. The F1 plants were then allowed toself-fertilize to produce an F2 generation. The 277 F2plants were 157 purple : 71 white : 49 lavender. a. Explain how flower color is inherited. Is this traitcontrolled by the alleles of a single gene?b. What kinds of progeny would be produced if lavender F2 plants were allowed to self-fertilize?arrow_forward
- The alleles his-5 and lys-1, found in yeast, result in cells that require histidine and lysine for growth, respectively. A cross was made between two haploid yeast strains that are his-5 lys-1 and his+ lys+. 973 tetrads were analyzed, with the following pattern: 7 tetrads with 2 his-5 lys+ spores and 2 his+ lys-1 spores 603 tetrads with 2 his-5 lys-1 spores and 2 his+ lys+ spores 363 tetrads with 1 his-5 lys-1 spore, 1 his-5 lys+ spore, 1 his+ lys-1 spores, and 1 his+ lys+ spore Compute the map distance between these two genes using the method that considered double crossovers and the one that does not. Show your work. Which give the higher value? Why? What is the frequency of single crossovers between these genes? Explain. Based on the frequency of single-crossovers, how many double crossovers would one expect? Is positive interference occurring?arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, a cross was made between a yellowbodied male with vestigial (not fully developed)wings and a wild-type female (brown body). The F1generation consisted of wild-type males and wild-typefemales. F1 males and females were crossed, and theF2 progeny consisted of 16 yellow-bodied males withvestigial wings, 48 yellow-bodied males with normalwings, 15 males with brown bodies and vestigialwings, 49 wild-type males, 31 brown-bodied femaleswith vestigial wings, and 97 wild-type females.Explain the inheritance of the two genes in questionbased on these results.arrow_forwardIn an autotetraploid organism, the gene controlling coat color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele Y for the yellow coat is dominant to y for blue coat. A homozygous yellow autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous blue autotetraploid strain. What types and proportions of gametes would the F1 be expected to produce if the Y locus were 40 or more map units from the centromere? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.
