In roses, purple flower color is determined by the dominant P allele, while pp homozygotes are white. The presence of long stems is determined by the dominant S allele, while ss homozygotes have short stems. Both mutations are completely penetrant. A test cross was performed between a rose plant of unknown genotype with a white flowered, short stemmed rose plant (pp ss) and the following 200 progeny plants were obtained: 84 white flowers, long stems 16 purple flowers, long stems 82 purple flowers, short stems 18 white flowers, short stems Select the statements below that are TRUE. Select 2 correct answer(s) The P and S genes independently assort during meiosis. The map distance between P and S is 17 cm. The genotype of the progeny plants with purple flowers and short stems is PP ss. The map distance between P and S is 83 cm. The homologs in the plant with unknown genotype are p S and P s. The homologs in the plant with unknown genotype are P S and p s.

A pure-breeding strain of squash that produced diskshaped fruits (see the accompanying illustration) wascrossed with a pure-breeding strain having long fruits.The F1 had disk fruits, but the F2 showed a new phenotype, sphere, and was composed of the followingproportions:Longlong 32 sphere 178 disk 270Sphere DiskPropose an explanation for these results, and showthe genotypes of the P, F1, and F2 generations.
Albino rabbits (lacking pigment) are homozygous forthe recessive c allele (C allows pigment formation).Rabbits homozygous for the recessive b allele makebrown pigment, while those with at least one copy ofB make black pigment. True-breeding brown rabbitswere crossed to albinos, which were also BB. F1 rabbits, which were all black, were crossed to the doublerecessive (bb cc). The progeny obtained were 34black, 66 brown, and 100 albino.a. What phenotypic proportions would have beenexpected if the b and c loci were unlinked?b. How far apart are the two loci?
In a fungus with four ascospores, a mutant allele lys-5causes the ascospores bearing that allele to be white,whereas the wild-type allele lys-5+ results in black ascospores. (Ascospores are the spores that constitute thefour products of meiosis.) Draw an ascus from each ofthe following crosses:a. lys-5 × lys-5+b. lys-5 × lys-5c. lys-5+ × lys-5+
Summer squash exist in long, spherical, or disk shapes. When atrue-breeding long-shaped strain was crossed to a true-breedingdisk-shaped strain, all of the F1 offspring were disk-shaped. Whenthe F1 offspring were allowed to self-fertilize, the F2 generationconsisted of a ratio of 9 disk-shaped to 6 round-shaped to 1 longshaped. Assuming the shape of summer squash is governed by twodifferent genes, with each gene existing in two alleles, propose amechanism to account for this 9:6:1 ratio
On a fox ranch in Wisconsin, a mutation arose that gavea “platinum” coat color. The platinum color proved verypopular with buyers of fox coats, but the breeders couldnot develop a pure-breeding platinum strain. Every timetwo platinums were crossed, some normal foxes appeared in the progeny. For example, the repeated matings of the same pair of platinums produced 82 platinumand 38 normal progeny. All other such matings gavesimilar progeny ratios. State a concise genetic hypothesisthat accounts for these results.
In maize trisomics, n + 1 pollen is not viable. If adominant allele at the B locus produces purple colorinstead of the recessive phenotype bronze and a B b btrisomic plant is pollinated by a B B b plant, whatproportion of the progeny produced will be trisomicand have a bronze phenotype?
A student whose hobby was fishing pulled a very unusual carp out of Cayuga Lake: It had no scales on itsbody. She decided to investigate whether this strangenude phenotype had a genetic basis. She therefore obtained some inbred carp that were pure-breeding forthe wild-type scale phenotype (body covered withscales in a regular pattern) and crossed them with hernude fish. To her surprise, the F1 progeny consistedof a 1:1 ratio of wild-type fish and fish with a singlelinear row of scales on each side.a. Can a single gene with two alleles account for thisresult? Why or why not?b. To follow up on the first cross, the student allowedthe linear fish from the F1 generation to mate witheach other. The progeny of this cross consisted offish with four phenotypes: linear, wild type, nude,and scattered (the latter had a few scales scattered irregularly on the body). The ratio of these phenotypeswas 6:3:2:1, respectively. How many genes appear tobe involved in determining these phenotypes?c. In…
Three genes in fruit flies affect a particular trait, andone dominant allele of each gene is necessary to get awild-type phenotype.a. What phenotypic ratios would you predict amongthe progeny if you crossed triply heterozygous flies?b. You cross a particular wild-type male in successionwith three tester strains. In the cross with one testerstrain (AA bb cc), only 1/4 of the progeny are wildtype. In the crosses involving the other two testerstrains (aa BB cc and aa bb CC), half of the progeny are wild type. What is the genotype of thewild-type male?
When Calvin Bridges observed a large number of offspring from a cross of white-eyed female Drosophila tored-eyed males, he found very rare white-eyed femalesand red-eyed males among the offspring. He was ableto show that these exceptions resulted from nondisjunction, such that the white-eyed females had received twoXs from the egg and a Y from the sperm, while thered-eyed males had received no sex chromosome fromthe egg and an X from the sperm. What progeny wouldhave arisen from these same kinds of nondisjunctionalevents if they had occurred in the male parent? Whatwould their eye colors have been?

Fruit flies with one allele for curly wings (Cy) andone allele for normal wings (Cy+) have curly wings.When two curly-winged flies were crossed, 203curly-winged and 98 normal-winged flies wereobtained. In fact, all crosses between curly-wingedflies produce nearly the same curly : normal ratioamong the progeny.a. What is the approximate phenotypic ratio in theseoffspring?b. Suggest an explanation for these data.c. If a curly-winged fly was mated to a normalwinged fly, how many flies of each type would youexpect among 180 total offspring?
