In a population of rabbits, you find three differentcoat color phenotypes: chinchilla (C), himalaya (H),and albino (A). To understand the inheritance of coatcolors, you cross individual rabbits with each otherand note the results in the following table.Cross number Parental phenotypes Phenotypes of progeny1 H × H 3/4 H : 1/4 A2 H × A 1/2 H : 1/2 A3 C × C 3/4 C : 1/4 H4 C × H all C5 C × C 3/4 C : 1/4 A6 H × A all H7 C × A 1/2 C : 1/2 A8 A × A all A9 C × H 1/2 C : 1/2 H10 C × H 1/2 C : 1/4 H : 1/4 Aa.

In goats, development of the beard is due to a recessive gene. The following cross involving true-breeding goats was made and car- ried to the F2 generation: P;: bearded female x beardless male F1: all bearded males and beardless females ´1/8 beardless males | 3/8 bearded males 3/8 beardless females 1/8 bearded females F; × F, Offer an explanation for the inheritance and expression of this trait, diagramming the cross. Propose one or more crosses to test your hypothesis.
Gregor Mendel examined the inheritance of two traits in pea plants: seed coat texture and colour. Seed coat texture can be represented as S-smooth and s-wrinkled, and seed coat colour can be represented as Y-yellow and y-green. SSYY plants were crossed with ssyy plants to yield F1 pea seeds that were all smooth and all yellow. By crossing plants grown from these F1 seeds, Mendel obtained four different phenotypes of F2 seeds: • smooth and green seeds wrinkled and green seeds smooth and yellow seeds wrinkled and yellow seeds ● Use the following information to answer the next question. ● The F2 phenotypic ratio that Mendel obtained upon crossing two heterozygous smooth and yellow F1 individuals would have been: smooth and green wrinkled and green : smooth and yellow: wrinkled and yellow Record only the numeric values associated with the phenotypes. (Do not include the colons, spaces, commas, etc.)
For the following cross, show the P generation Genotypes and the Phenotypic ratio that would be seen in the F1 and F2. Remember, to produce the F2 generation you want to cross Heterozygotes from the F1. d) Genes 1 and 2 exhibit Epistasis (9:6:1) and Gene 3 is an Autosomal Dominant. In the P generation, the Male is Homozygous Recessive for the Genes showing Epistasis. Use E1, E2 and E3 to represent the Phenotypes shown by Epistasis. Report your results in the following format: P = aabb x AABB, F1 = 100%AaBb (Phenotype), and %3! F2 = 9/16 A_B_ (Phenotype), 3/16 aaB (Phenotype), 3/16 A_bb (Phenotype), 1/16 aabb (Phenotype)
In radishes, flower colors 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 3 white crosses yield all purple. If these F1 purples are interbred, the F2 generation consists of 1/4 red: 1/2 purple: 1/4 white. Regarding radish shape, long is dominant to oval in a normal Mendelian fashion. a. Determine the F1 and F2 phenotypes from a cross between a true-breeding red, long radish, and a radish that is white and oval. Be sure to define all gene symbols at the start. b. A red oval plant was crossed with a plant of unknown genotype and phenotype, yielding the following offspring:103 red long: 101 red oval98 purple long: 100 purple oval Determine the genotype and phenotype of the unknown plant.
J.W. McKay crossed a stock (true-breeding) melon plant that produced tan seeds with a plant that only produced red seeds and obtained the following results (J.W. McKay. 1936. Journal of Heredity 27:110-112). Cross F1 F2 Tan x red 13 tan 93 tan, 24 red a) Explain the inheritance of tan seeds and red seeds in this plant. b) Assign symbols for the alleles in this cross and draw out the Punnett Squares for the initial cross and the F1 cross.
A dihybrid cross is performed between two heterozygous individuals (heterozygous for two traits). The resulting offspring had 62 individuals that were dominant for trait 1 and 2 (D/D), 7 individuals that were R/R, 21 individuals that were R/D, and 25 individuals that were D/R. Using Mendelian inheritance as the null hypothesis, use χ2 analysis to determine if the trait follows Mendelian inheritance. A. How many D/D phenotype offspring are expected? B. How many R/D phenotype offspring are expected? C. How many degrees of freedom are there? D. What is your calculated χ2 value? E. What is the critical value if using a probability of 0.05? F. Does the trait follow Mendelian inheritance?
A tall pea plant (homozygous dominant) is crossed to a pea plant that is heterozygous for the gene for height. Create a Punnett Square and use it to answer the following questions: What is the genotypic ratio of the offspring? What is the phenotypic ratio of the offspring? Answers are written as genotype; phenotype a) 50% TT : 50% Tt; 100% tall plants b) 1 TT : 2 Tt : 1tt; 75% tall plants : 25% dwarf plants c) 1 TT : 2 Tt : 1tt; 25% tall plants : 50% medium height plants : 25% dwarf plants
In dogs, dark coat color phenotype (D) is dominant over albino (a) and short hair (S) is dominant over long hair (1). Assume that these phenotypes are caused by two independently assorting genes and write as much as you can, the genotypes of the parents in the cross below.

The color of summer squash is determined by 2 interacting loci where the genotype A-B- results in green squash, A-bb and aabb results in white squash, and aaB- results in yellow squash. Two fully heterozygous plants are crossed. Give the expected ratio of phenotypes for the offspring. What pattern of inheritance is demonstrated in this example?

A cross like this (between two individuals heterozygous for two traits) is often referred to as a "two-point test cross". The expected ratio of phenotypes if the two traits are caused by unlinked genes displaying simple Mendelian dominant inheritance is 9:3:3:1. For this ratio, match each term of the ratio with the appropriate phenotype Wrinkled and green peas 1. 9 Round and yellow peas 2. 3 Round and green peas 3. 1 Wrinkled and yellow peas > >
Mendelian ratios are modified in crosses involving autotetraploids.Assume that one plant expresses the dominant trait greenseeds and is homozygous (WWWW). This plant is crossed to onewith white seeds that is also homozygous (wwww). If only onedominant allele is sufficient to produce green seeds, predict theF1 and F2 results of such a cross. Assume that synapsis betweenchromosome pairs is random during meiosis.
Pigment in mouse fur is only produced when the C allele is present. Individuals of the cc genotype are white. If color is present, it may be determined by the A, a AA or Aa results in agouti color, while aa results in black coats. What F1 and F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from a cross between AACC and aacc mice? (F2: intercross between F1 offspring) Explain briefly the pattern of inheritance in this problem set and how you determined the phenotypic ratios in the offspring.
