Chapter 24, Problem 3IQ
  1. a. A new plant species 8 forms by autopolyploidy from species A, which has a chromosome number of 2n = 10. How many chromosomes would species 8 have?
  2. b. If species A were to hybridize with species C (2n = 14) and produce a new allopolyploid species D, how many chromosomes would species D have?

Species I is diploid (2n=8) with chromosomes AABBCCDD. Related species II is diploid (2n=8) with chromosomes MMNNOOPP. Individuals with the ff. sets of chromosomes represent what types of chromosome mutations (be very specific)? Give the level of ploidy (in equation form) and resultant chromosome number for each plant. AABBCCCCDD (c) MMNNOOOPPP     (e) AABBCDD                           AABBDD                          (d) AABBCCDDMNOP
Use two different colors to depict the unduplicated chromosomes of species C with larger chromosomes (2n = 8) and species D with slightly smaller chromosomes (2n =10), and of their F1 hybrid. Is the hybrid likely to befertile?
Species A has 2 n = 10 chromosomes. Species B has 2 n = 40 chromosomes. On average, will two randomly selected genes from species A be more likely, less likely, or equally likely to assort independently than two randomly selected genes from species B? Explain your reasoning.
