Work the following crosses through the F2 generation, and determine the genotypic and phenotypic ratios for each generation. Assume that the P1 individuals are homozygous. a. Gray, long x ebony, vestigial b. Gray, long x gray, vestigial !! !! lili 田2. a. A Drosophila male from a true-breeding stockwith scabrous eyes was mated with a female from atrue-breeding stock with javelin bristles. Both scabrous eyes and javelin bristles are autosomal recessive mutant traits. The F1 progeny all had normaleyes and bristles. F1 females from this cross weremated with males with both scabrous eyes andjavelin bristles. Write all the possible phenotypicclasses of the progeny that could be produced from the cross of the F1 females with the scabrous, javelin males, and indicate for each class whether it is arecombinant or parental type.b. The cross in part (a) yielded the following progeny:77 scabrous eyes and normal bristles; 76 wild type(normal eyes and bristles); 74 normal eyes andjavelin bristles; and 73 scabrous eyes and javelinbristles. Are the genes governing these traits likelyto be linked, or do they instead assort independently? Why?c. Suppose you mated the F1 females from the crossin part (a) to wild-type males. Why would thiscross fail…1. The allele G for yellow stigma is completely dominant to green (g). Supposingtwo strains of autotetraploid plants are available and their genotypes are as follows:GGgg – in this plant the gene is close to the centromereGggg – in this plant the gene is far from the centromere If these two plants are crossed:a) provide the gametes that can be obtained from the two plants;b) provide the genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring. 2. Consider the illustration below. Diagram the configuration you would observe at Anaphase I if crossing-over happens within the inversion. (IMAGE ATTACHED)
- 3. When Mendel cross- fertilised tall purple-flowered pea plants with short white-flowered pea plan and grew the resulting seeds. All the F1 generation were tall with purple flowers. a) Draw a genetic diagram to show the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 generation b) Construct a punnett square to predict the outcomes of the phenotypes produced if the F1 generation were allowed to self fertilise. What is the phenotypic ratio?. The normal eye color of Drosophila is red, but strains inwhich all flies have brown eyes are available. Similarly,wings are normally long, but there are strains with shortwings. A female from a pure line with brown eyes andshort wings is crossed with a male from a normal pureline. The F1 consists of normal females and short-wingedmales. An F2 is then produced by intercrossing the F1.Both sexes of F2 flies show phenotypes as follows:38 red eyes, long wings38 red eyes, short wings18 brown eyes, long wings18 brown eyes, short wingsDeduce the inheritance of these phenotypes; useclearly defined genetic symbols of your own invention.State the genotypes of all three generations and thegenotypic proportions of the F1 and F2.Unpacking Problem 31Before attempting a solution to this problem, try answering thefollowing questions:1. What does the word normal mean in this problem?2. The words line and strain are used in this problem.What do they mean, and are they interchangeable?3. Draw a simple…2. 3 1. In radishes, flower color 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 x white crosses yield all purple. Determine the appropriate allele symbols and indicate which genotypes lead to which a. phenotypes. b. If the F1 purple plants described above are interbred, what will be the genotype and phenotype ratios in the F2 generation? C. Regarding radish shape, long is dominant to oval in the typical Mendelian fashion. What will be the phenotype ratios in the F2 generation of a cross between a true-breeding red, long radish and a white, oval radish?
- a. In Drosophila, crosses between F1 heterozygotes ofthe form A b / a B always yield the same ratio ofphenotypes in the F2 progeny regardless of the distance between the two genes (assuming completedominance for both autosomal genes). What is thisratio? Would this also be the case if the F1 heterozygotes were A B / a b? (Hint: Remember that inDrosophila, recombination does not take placeduring spermatogenesis.)b. If you intercrossed F1 heterozygotes of the formA b / a B in mice, the phenotypic ratio among the F2progeny would vary with the map distance betweenthe two genes. Is there a simple way to estimate themap distance based on the frequencies of the F2phenotypes, assuming rates of recombination areequal in males and females? Could you estimatemap distances in the same way if the mouse F1heterozygotes were A B / a b?In Drosophila melanogaster white (w) and miniature (m) wings are controlled by X-linked recessive genes with a recombination fruequency between them of approximately 38%. Show the sexes, phenotypes and proportions of offspring expected from the following mating:a. ++/wm female X wm maleb. +m/w+ female X w+ malec. w+/+m female X ++ maleIf we assume that white eyes and miniature wings are not x-linked but are linkedto the autosomal genes, what phenotypic frequencies would you expect from this cross: ++/wm female X ++/wm male?1. Imagine you have crossed a pure breeding purple flower and pinched pod shape pea plant with a pure breeding white flower and round pod shape pea plant. What would the phenotype be with respect to the flower color and the pod shape in the F1 generation? ” 2. If one of the F1 was allowed to cross-fertilize, what would be the possible phenotypes in the F2 and how many of each phenotype would you predict out of a total of 200 F2 progeny?”
- 1. In pea plants, one-pod plants are dominant over three-pod plants and smooth leaves are dominant over wrinkled leaves. Determine the genotypes of the parents that produced the following: a. 150 one-pod smooth leaf; 147 one-pod wrinkled leaf; 51 three-pod smooth leaf; 48 three pod wrinkled leaf b. 223 one-pod smooth leaf; 72 one-pod wrinkled leaf; 76 three-pod smooth leaf; and 27 three-pod wrinkled leaf. In Drosophila, three loci, Bar eyes (B, dominant), Scalloped wings (sd, recessive), and tanbody (t, recessive) are all located on the X chromosome. Bar eyes is located at position57, scalloped wings at position 51.5, and tan body at position 27.5. A female whosemother was homozygous dominant at all three loci and whose father was hemizygousrecessive at all three loci produces 1000 egg cells. How many TsdB cells would youexpect if chromosomal interference = 0? ____6-7_______ why is that the answer?19) In Drosophila fruit flies, the gene controlling bristle length is X-linked. Wild type flies have long bristles; short bristles is a recessive trait. You cross a long-bristled female fly to a short-bristled male fly. All the F1 progeny have a wild type phenotype. Next, you cross the F1 flies to produce an F2 generation. If there are a total of 200 F2 flies, how many of the F2 females are expected to have short bristles? V/100 Wild type fruit flies have grey bodies and straight wings. Yellow bodies and curly wings are both recessive phenotypes. The body color gene is X-linked; the wild type allele is designated XY+. The wing shape gene is autosomal; the wild type allele is designated C+. You cross a pure breeding yellow-bodied, curly-winged female with a grey-bodied, straight-winged male to produce an F1 generation. Use this information to answer questions X-Y below. You cross two F1 flies to produce an F2 generation. You select a female F2 fly that is phenotypically wild type. What…
