1. The following table gives data for the frequency of genotypes in a population of sunflower plants from a coastal sage scrub community over the course of 50 generations. Gene products of the A allele produce stems without hairs, while gene products of the a allele produce stems with short hairs but flowers with many infertile stamens, and the a' allele produces stems with dense hairs and flowers with all fertile stamens. Note that it may cost the plants greatly in extra carbon to produce these hairs. At the onset of this survey, an invasive insect species that feeds upon the buds of sunflowers had been accidentally introduced into the habitat of this plant population. This insect makes its living by ascending the stems of herbaceous plants rather than landing upon the flower stalks or stems. Thus, dense hairs would impede the ability of this insect to reach the buds. Interpret the results of the data and explain how natural selection might be driving the genotype frequencies in this…

5. The color of the hull in oat seeds are determined by two genes that independently assort. The black hull phenotype is due to a dominant allele A. The grey hull phenotype is due to a dominant allele B. However, the effect of B is only apparent in the aa genotypes. In other words, the presence of the A allele masks the effect of the genotypes in the B gene. If neither A or B is present, the color of the hull would be white. You take a true breeding white strain (aabb) and cross it with a true breeding black strain (AABB). You let the F1 generation self-fertilize and collected the F2 generation of seeds. a. In the diagram below, please fill out the blue areas. In the rectangles, please fill in genotypes. In the parentheses, fill in proportions of respective genotypes. In the lines, specify the respective phenotypes (black, grey or white).. b. Out of all the black hulled seeds, what proportions have the genotype AaBb?
