In peas, purple flowers are dominant to white. If a purple-flowered, heterozygous plant were crossed with a white-flowered plant, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F1F1offspring? If two of the purple-flowered F1F1 offspring were randomly selected and crossed, what is the expected ratio of genotypes and phenotypes among the F2F2 offspring?

In the Roselle plant, the dominant allele of gene 'A' codes for a pink flower and the recessive form codes for yellow flowers, while the dominant form of gene 'B' codes for serrated leaves, while the recessive form codes for smooth leaves. If the genes are trans linked, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes and the respective ratios when plants heterozygous for both genes are test crossed?
Assume that smooth seed coats are dominant over rough seed coat. If two pea plants that are both Heterozygous for seed coats are crossed, what do you expect in the offspring (the f1 generation)? Specifically, what genotypes, what phenotypes, and in what ratios? (Use S for the smooth seed coat and s for the rough seed coat.) (Again, it is helpful to write out all the possible genotypes and give the phenotype for each genotype before answering the specific question.) Be careful in writing capital S and lower case.
A homozygous variety of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum Laciniatum) with lacerate leaves was crossed with another homozygous variety with normal leaves. All the F₁ had lacerate leaves (jagged-edged leaves). Two F₁ plants were crossed to produce the F2. Of the F2, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? two genes, with a dominant allele at both loci two genes, where one allele at a single locus is recessive lethal one gene, with codominant alleles at a single locus two genes, with a dominant allele at either or both loci Give genotypes for all the plants in the P, F₁, and F2 generations.

The genes of tall vine, D, and yellow seed, G, are dominant over their respective alleles for dwarf, d, and green, g. What pheno types and genotypes are expected from each of the following crosses? Include phenotypic and genotypic ratio. a) heterozygoes tall, homozygoes yellow x homozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow b) dwarf, heterozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, green c) homozygoes tall, homozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, green d) heterozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow x heterozygoes tall, heterozygoes yellow
Assume that, in a series of experiments, plants with round seeds were crossed with plants with wrinkled seeds and the following offspring were obtained: 215 round and 185 wrinkled. How do you explain these observations and what would be the expected number of offspring with round seed and with wrinkled seed? The plants with round seeds are heterozygous for the round seed phenotype and F1 offspring is expected to show 200 round and 200 wrinkled seed. The plants with round seeds are homozygous for the round seed phenotype and F1 offspring is expected to show 300 round and 100 wrinkled seed. The plants with round seeds are heterozygous for the round seed phenotype and F1 offspring is expected to show 100 round and 300 wrinkled seed. The plants with round seeds are homozygous for the round seed phenotype and F1 offspring is expected to show 200 round and 200 wrinkled seed. The plants with round seeds are heterozygous for the round seed phenotype and F1 offspring is…
The crossing of two orange-flowering plants results in 61 orange-flower progeny and 27 white-flower progeny. The crossing of two orange-flowering F1 plants generates a similar progeny ratio as observed for the parental cross, while the crossing of white-flowering F1 plants only produces white-flowering progeny. What is a likely explanation for these results?
A variety of opium poppy with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 plants had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were then interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2 plants, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. What are the genotypes of the plants in the P (parental), F1, and F2 generations? How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? Note: You can use the symbols A and B to represent the two genes involved. (How do we know there are two?)
In the pearl-millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and rp (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 > Rp2 > rp). Give the expected phenotypes and ratios of offspring produced by the following crosses. a. Rp1/ Rp2 × Rp1/ rp b. Rp1/ rp × Rp2/ rp c. Rp1/ Rp2 × Rp1/ Rp2 d. Rp2/ rp × rp/ rp e. rp/ rp × Rp1/ Rp2
In the tomato plant, red fruit (R) is dominant over green (r). Smooth fruit skin (S) is dominant over peachy skin (s). The genes for fruit colour and fruit texture are linked on the same chromosome. A heterozygous red, heterozygous smooth plant was crossed with a green, peachy plant. The results are given:Smooth-red = 28Smooth-green 567Peachy-red = 534Peachy-green = 34i. Calculate the map distance between the genes.ii. The map distance calculated in (i) is not representing the true distance between the genes? Provide your argument.
The crossing of two orange-flowering plants results in ~2/3 orange-flower progeny and ~1/3 white-flower progeny. The crossing of two orange-flowering F1 plants generates the same progeny ratios as observed for the parental cross, while the crossing of white-flowering F1 plants only produces white-flowering progeny. What is a likely explanation for these results?
A variety of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. Give genotypes for all the plants in the P, F1, and F2 generations. Explain how lacerate leaves are determined in the opium poppy.
Assume that the trihybrid cross AABBrr x aabbRR is made in a plant species. Assume that A and B are dominant alleles, but there is no dominance effect of alleles at the R locus. a) How many different gametes are possible in the F1generation? What are the genotypes of these gametes? b) What is the probability of the parental aabbRR genotype in the F2 progeny? c) What proportion of the F2 progeny would be expected to be homozygous for all three genes?
