Produce a Punnett square to illustrate the dihybrid cross described below: There are two common alleles for the TAS2R38 gene on Chromosome 7. This gene encodes a seven-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptor. This receptor controls the ability to taste glucosinolates. Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) is a synthetic glucosinolate. The recessive TAS2R38 allele produces a non-functional receptor. The father in this dihybrid cross is heterozygous for these alleles, meaning that he can taste PTC. The mother is homozygous recessive, meaning that she cannot taste PTC The father has X-Linked Protoporphyria which means that he is very sensitive to sunlight exposure, he is hemizygous for the dominant causative mutation. The mother is homozygous wild type at the same locus.

The following genotypes of two independently assorting autosomal genes determine coat color in rats:A-B- (gray); A-bb (yellow); aaB-(black); aabb (cream)A third gene pair on a separate autosome determines whetherany color will be produced. The CC and Cc genotypes allow coloraccording to the expression of the A and B alleles. However,the cc genotype results in albino rats regardless of the A and Balleles present. Determine the F1 phenotypic ratio of the followingcrosses: (a)AAbbCC * aaBBcc; (b) AaBBcc * AABbcc;(c) AaBbCc * AaBbcc.
Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is due to a mutation in a gene that encodesa protein called hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase(HPRT). HPRT is an enzyme that functions in purine metabolism.People afflicted with this syndrome have severe neurodegenerationand loss of motor control. The pedigree below contains severalindividuals with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, shown with blacksymbols. Based on this pedigree, does this syndrome appearto be inherited by an autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant,X-linked recessive, or X-linked dominant pattern? Explainyour reasoning.
Concordance studies of twins for a neurodegenerative disorder show MZ= 46% and DZ= 15%. Further studies have shown a possible link to a gene on chromosome 9, however, there are some individuals in the study who have the allele but do not develop the disorder (group 1), and there are other individuals who do not have the allele yet develop the disorder (group 2). Amita's older sister and maternal uncle have this disorder. Currently, Amita & her 2 younger brothers do not show symptoms. Amita's paternal grandfather was rumored to have this disorder. 1. Draw the pedigree for Amita's family and determine the mode of inheritance if any. 2. Explain how the 2 groups in the study could be possible? 3. What would you tell Amita about the heritability of this disorder?
In Drosophila melanogaster, red eyes are dominant over white and the variation for this characteristic is on the X chromosome. Vestigial wings (v) are recessive to normal (V) for an autosomal gene. Predict the appearance of offspring of the following crosses: XW/Xw V/v×Xw/Y v/v, Xw/Xw V/v × XW/Y V/v.

Multiple crosses were made between true-breeding lines of black and yellow Labrador retrievers. All the F1 progeny were yellow. When these progeny were intercrossed, they produced an F2 consisting of 121 yellow, 9 black and 30 chocolate. What epistatic ratio and what kind of epistasis is approximated in the F2? Propose a biochemical pathway for coat color in Labrador retrievers based on the type of epistasis. Correlate each genotype with the phenotype that would occur in your pathway. Also show the frequency of each genotype. A-B- A-bb aaB- aabb
Females of wild-type Strain A and males of mutant Strain B, as well as females of mutant Strain B and males of wild-type Strain A, make reciprocal crosses. Explain why reciprocal crosses are needed in genetics experiments involving Drosophila fruit flies.
Consider a maize plant: Genotype C/cm ; Ac/Ac+ where cm is an unstable colorless allele caused by Ds insertion. What phenotypic ratios would be produced and in what proportions when this plant is crossed with a mutant c/c Ac+/Ac+? Assume that the Ac and c loci are unlinked, that the chromosome-breakage frequency is negligible, and the C allele encodes pigment production.
Consider the following variations in Drosophila melanogaster, relative to the wild-type: White eyes are a recessive trait—the gene of which is found in Chromosome I (X). Vestigial wings are a recessive trait—the gene of which is found in Chromosome II. Aristapedia is a dominant trait—the gene of which is found in Chromosome III. Being homozygous for this condition is lethal. Cross the following mutant females with a wild-type (homozygous) male.
