The diagram shows a plant that is heterozygous for two genes. G = yellow; g = green; R = round; r= wrinkled G Four different types of gametes are produced by a heterozygous individual when crossing over occurs, and two different types of gametes are produced when crossing over does not occur. What does this information reveal about crossng over? O Crossing over introduces variety by producing different combinations of alleles. O Crossing over reduces the incidence of DNA and chromosomal mutations. O Crossing over introduces variety in nature by creating new types of genes. O Crossing over maintains the count of genes and the original alleles in both chromosomes.

More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Consider the following cross: P1: AABBCCDDEE aabbccddee F1: AaBbCcDdEe (self-cross to get F2) What is the chance of getting an AaBBccDdee individual in the F2 generation?
Figure 8.9 In pea plants, round peas (R) are dominant to wrinkled peas (r). You do a test cross between a pea plant with wrinkled peas (genotype rr) and a plant of unknown genotype that has round peas. You end up with three plants, all which have round peas. From this data, can you tell if the parent plant is homozygous dominant or heterozygous?
Imagine you are crossing two plants that have these two genotypes—Tt and tt. What are the two genotypes of the gametes that the Tt plant can make? What is the one genotype of the gametes that the tt plant can make? Set up a Punnett square to analyze the cross. Does the Punnett square need to have four boxes or just two? If you were crossing a TT plant with a tt plant, how many boxes would be necessary in a Punnett square?
Two plants in a cross were each heterozygous for two gene pairs (AB/ab) whose loci are linked and 10 map units (mu) apart. (Recall that 1 mu is equal to 1% recombination between two genes.) Assuming that crossing over occurs during the formation of both male and female gametes and that the A and B alleles are dominant, determine the phenotypic ratio of their offspring. Part D If the two genes are 15 mu apart and the plant is (Ab/aB), what proportion of gametes from a signal plant will be ab? Part E What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be A_B_ if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part F What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be A_bb if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part G What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be aaB_ if the genes are 15 mu apart? Part H What proportion of the offspring of two plants ( both (Ab/aB)) will be aabb if the genes are 15 mu apart? How would I solve these?
Waxy endosperm (wx), shrunken endosperm (sh) and yellow seedling (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 test cross. The progeny of the test cross are: wx sh WX SH V WX SH V Wx sh WX sh V SH v SH V V 87 1,515 94 WX 1,531 3,479 292 WX Wx sh v 3,478 280 a. Determine the order of the genes on the chromosome. b.

A pea plant has a mendilian completely dominant gene for height flower colour phenotype. A pure breeding tall purple flower plant is crossed with a white dwarf plant. All offspring are purple and tall. If one of these offspring are crossed again with the white dwarf plant, what is the chances of producing a tall white flower? Explain your answer and any assumptions that you had to make. Note: You may not need the entire punnett square below or you may wish to use a different method.

In certain plants, tall (T) is dominant to short (t). If a heterozygous plant is crossed with a homozygous short plant, what is the probability that the offspring will be short? Show the punnett square please.
Suppose you have an AAaa tetraploid plant and it undergoes self-fertilization. At least two copies of thedominant allele A are needed to obtain the dominantphenotype. At what frequency will progeny with thedominant phenotype appear?
Give typed explanation : In peas, tall (T) is dominant to short (t). A homozygous tall plant is crossed with a short plant. The F1 are self-fertilized to produce the F2. Both tall and short plants appear in the F2. If the tall F2 are self-fertilized, what types of offspring and proportions will be produced?
