Textbook Question
Chapter 22, Problem 7TYU
SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY
DRAW IT In this chapter, you read that bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is an allohexaploid, containing two sets of chromosomes from each of three different parent species. Genetic analysis suggests that the three species pictured following this question each contributed chromosome sets to T. aestivum. (The capital letters here represent sets of chromosomes rather than individual genes.) Evidence also indicates that the first polyploidy event was a spontaneous hybridization of the early cultivated wheat species T. monococcum and a wild Triticum grass species. Based on this information, draw a diagram of one possible chain of events that could have produced the allohexaploid T. aestivum.

Humans have 46 pairs of chromosomes while chimpanzees have 48 pairs. It is proposed that the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees had 48 chromosomes. Fusion of two ancestral chromosome led to the formation of chromosome 2 in human. Propose a mechanism for how 46 chromosomes would have been propagated in humans, considering sexual reproduction as the means of reproduction.
Experiment:
Saccharomyces cerevisiae can exist stably in either a haploid or a diploid state. A haploid S. cerevisiae
cell has 16 chromosomes. When certain haploids come into contact, they fuse their cell walls and
membranes, followed by the fusion of their nuclear membranes. The single nucleus now has 32
chromosomes, 16 from each parent strain, and is thus a diploid.
Haploid yeast strains divide mitotically to give rise to haploid progeny, and diploid strains divide
mitotically to give rise to diploid progeny. Certain haploids can fuse to form diploids. Haploid S.
cerevisiae exists in two "mating types," called a and a. Mating occurs only between a and a cells; no
mating occurs between cells of identical mating type.
We have a collection of eight a haploid mutant strains and eight a haploid mutant strains of yeast
unable to synthesize tryptophan (trp). These will be combined (mated) in all possible combinations
to yield diploid strains. If the diploids can grow on minimal medium,…
How many chromosomes of the A, B, and D genomes are present in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum)? Explain the evolution of bread wheat

On the right is the schematic of the genomic region where the vge genes resides. You found that different species have different number of the vge genes. For example, the genome of spécies A (Sp. A) carries three copies of vge genes (vge-A, vge-B, and vge-C). Although they all encode the VGE enzyme and have the same function, their DNA sequences are not entirely identical to each other.
