Chapter 4, Problem 12PDQ
Three gene pairs located on separate autosomes determine flower color and shape as well as plant height. The first pair exhibits incomplete dominance, where the color can be red, pink (the heterozygote), or white. The second pair leads to personate (dominant) or peloric (recessive) flower shape, while the third gene pair produces either the dominant tall trait or the recessive dwarf trait. Homozygous plants that are red, personate, and tall are crossed to those that are white, peloric, and dwarf. Determine the F1 genotype(s) and

Consider the following hypothetical gene a plant.Gene T produces a protein that impacts stem length.There are two alleles for gene T, T which produces long stems and t which results in short stems. Assume that gene T displays complete dominance,
what would be the genotypes (written as two letters-your answer will be case sensitive) that correspond to- homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive and heterozygous.
and
the phenotypes (what trait will be observed in the plant) for each of the genotypes.
Waxy endosperm (wx), shrunken endosperm (sh), and yellow seedlings (v) are encoded by three recessive genes in corn that are linked on chromosome 5. A corn plant homozygous for all three recessive alleles is crossed with a plant homozygous for all the dominant alleles. The resulting F1 are then crossed with a plant homozygous for the recessive alleles in a three-point testcross. The progeny of the testcross are wx sh V 87 Wx Sh v 94 Wx Sh V 3,479 wx sh v 3,478 Wx sh V 1,515 wx Sh v 1,531 wx Sh V 292 Wx sh v 280 Total 10,756 a. Determine the order of these genes on the chromosome. b. Calculate the map distances between the genes. c. Determine the coefficient of coincidence and the interference among these genes.
In sesame plants the one-pod condition is dominant (P) to the three-pod condition (p), and a normal leaf (L) is dominant to the wrinkled leaf (l). Pod type and leaf type are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes for the parent producing offspring: 318 one-pod, normal leaf and 98 one-pod, wrinkled leaf

Dominant and recessive alleles, F and f, of another gene cause seeds to be spotted or not with violet color, respectively.

- Two different genes control the expression of kernel colour in Mexican black corn: black pigment gene B and dotted pigment gene D. Gene B influences the expression of gene D. The dotted phenotype appears only when gene B is in the homozygous recessive state. A colourless variation occurs when both genes are homozygous recessive.

Show the ratio as whole numbers in their lowest form and their corresponding phenotypes.arrow_forwardA researcher at ASU is studying the exotic Unicorn Fairy plant.
