A diploid trihybrid plant was testcrossed. Each of the three genes determines a single Mendelian trait. Two of the three genes are closely linked and crossover never occurs between them. What proportion of the progeny phenotypically resembles the trihybrid plant itself?

Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
A diploid plant is heterozygous for two linked genes, A and B. Crossovers between the two genes occurs in ~10% of meiosis. Multiple crossovers are never observed in one cell undergoing meiosis. What fraction of the gametes produced by this diploid plant are expected to be recombinant type? O 5% O 10% 2.5% 25%
After analyzing data from a three-point cross she has lost her lab manual. The only thing she can find is that the Interference in this cross was 0.68. She remembers a testcross was done with a heterozygous female and that the genes being analyzed were forked bristles, crossveinless wings, and white eyes. She also tells you that there is an equal distance between these genes. What is this distance if she counted 3 double crossover progeny out of 500 total progeny?
In a variety of tomato plant ,the leaves maybe pure green,pure white,or variegated (mixture). a)when 2 variegated plants were crossed,87 offspring were produced,of these 20 were green,46 were variegated and 21 remain died soon after germination.Draw a genetic diagram to explain these results,why did 21 of them died
A male plant with genotype AaBBCcDdee was crossed with one heterozygous for all thegenes. (a) what is the probability of getting a pollen with ABcDe genes? (b) of producing anovum with three dominant and two recessive genes? (c) of getting a progeny with samephenotype as the female parent? (d) of progeny with exactly same genotype as the femaleparent? (e) If instead of the above male, the cross was with one heterozygous for all thegenes, what proportion of the offspring will have three dominant phenotypic traits. (f) willbe genotypically like the parents?
A white F2 plant is allowed to self-fertilize. Of the progeny, 3/4 are white-flowered, and 1/4 are purple-flowered. What is the genotype of the white F2 plant?
We have dealt mainly with only two genes, but the sameprinciples hold for more than two genes. Consider thefollowing cross:A/a ; B/b ; C/c ; D/d ; E/e × a/a ; B/b ; c/c ; D/d ; e/ea. What proportion of progeny will phenotypicallyresemble (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?b. What proportion of progeny will be genotypically thesame as (1) the first parent, (2) the second parent,(3) either parent, and (4) neither parent?Assume independent assortment.
In tomatoes, red fruit is dominant to yellow fruit, and purple stems are dominant to green stems. Thegenes encoding these traits are on different homologous chromosomes. The progeny from a matingconsisted of 305 red fruit, purple stem plants; 328 red fruit, green stem plants; 110 yellow fruit,purple stem plants; and 97 yellow fruit, green stem plants. What would be the genotypic and phenotypic outcome if each parent was self-fertilized?
One strain of periwinkleplants has green leaves and another strain has white leaves. Bothstrains are true-breeding. You do not know if the phenotypicdifference is due to alleles of a nuclear gene or an organellar gene.The two strains were analyzed using reciprocal crosses, and thefollowing results were obtained:A plant with green leaves is pollinated by a plant with whiteleaves: all offspring have green leaves.A plant with white leaves is pollinated by a plant with greenleaves: all offspring have white leaves. Is this pattern of inheritance consistent with simple Mendelianinheritance, where green is dominant to white, and/or is it consistentwith maternal inheritance?
A type of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) produces fruit in three possible colors: red, green, and orange. You cross a true-breeding orange-fruited plant with a true-breeding green-fruited plant, and all the F1 offspring are red. You intercross the red F1s, and the resulting F2 generation consists of 108 red-, 40 orange-, and 44 green-fruited plants. 1) What type of epistasis is acting (dominant, recessive, duplicate dominant, or duplicate recessive)? 2) Assign the phenotypes to a modified 9:3:3:1 ratio. (Do not just calculate the actual ratio of the phenotypes.) Red : _____Orange : _____Green: _____
In tomatoes, regular leaves (L) are multilobed and serrated and potato leaves (l) are broad, smooth, and single (Image 1). Red fruit (F) is dominant to yellow fruit (f). A cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1 individuals are then crossed with one another. Complete a Punnett square to determine the expected F2 progeny on the basis of Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the alleles for one gene segregate independently of the alleles for other genes during gamete formation.
