In tomato plants, purple leaf color is controlled by a dominant allele A, and green leaf by a recessive allele a. At another locus, hairy leaf H is dominant to hairless leaf h. The genes for leaf color and leaf texture are separated by

The dominant form of another gene, A, activates the transcription of P, while the recessive form prevents the transcription of P and results in white flowers. A doubly-homozygous purple-flowered plant was crossed with a doubly-homozygous recessive white-flowered plant. The F1 progeny were then self-crossed to generate the F2 generation. Determine the ratios of genotypes and phenotypes for each generation.arrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the dominant Bar mutation (B, chromosome X, position 57) results in thin bar- shaped eyes, while the recessive singed (sn, chromosome X, position 21) results burnt looking bristles. True breeding, wild type females are mated with true breeding males with Bar eyes and singed bristles. Using Drosophila notation, diagram the P1 and F1 crosses.

- Two different genes control the expression of kernel colour in Mexican black corn: black pigment gene B and dotted pigment gene D. Gene B influences the expression of gene D. The dotted phenotype appears only when gene B is in the homozygous recessive state. A colourless variation occurs when both genes are homozygous recessive. After pure-breeding black-pigmented plants were crossed with colourless plants, all of the offspring were black-pigmented. What is the probability of dotted offspring being produced from the test cross described above? (Record your answer as a percentage - do not include a decimal).arrow_forwardIn fruit flies, the autosomal recessive mutation pr causes brown eyes whereas the cn mutation causes bright-red eyes (again autosomal recessive). When both mutations are homozygous in the individual (double mutant; pr-cn combination), it causes orange eyes. Wild-type flies have red eyes. It is known that these genes are found on the same chromosome. Scenario: A female who has wild-type eyes is crossed to an orange eyed male. Their progeny have the following distribution of eye colors: wild-type 23 brown 220 bright-red 230 orange 27 Total 500 What is the genotype of the mother of these progeny?

- 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?arrow_forwardthree recessive genes a, b, and c in the model plant Arabidopsis are found to be linked on chromosome 4.

- In the fruit fly, dumpy wings (d) and purple eyes (p) are encoded by mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild type traits; long wings (d+) and red eyes (p+). These two genes are on the same chromosome. In a particular lab, two researchers Walt and Jesse crossed a fly homozygous for dumpy wings and purple eyes with a fly homozygous for the wild type traits. The F1 progeny, which had long wings and red eyes, was then crossed with flies that had dumpy wings and purple eyes. Unfortunately, the progeny of this cross somehow escaped. To prevent their other projects from contamination, they decided to spend an exceptionally boring hour in the lab catching and counting the progeny and found the following: long wings, red eyes – 482 dumpy wings, purple eyes – 473 long wings, purple eyes – 23 dumpy wings, red eyes - 22 What is the genetic distance between these two loci? a. 4.5 cM b. 55 cM c. 45 cM d. 49.5 cM e. 4.7 cMarrow_forwardIn Drosophila, the gene w specifies eye color. Wildtype allele w+ gives red eyes and is dominant. The recessive allele w specifies white eye color. The gene m specifies wing size and the wildtype allele m+ gives normal wing whereas the recessive allele m specifies miniature wing. Both genes are on the X chromosome. If you cross a female fly (red eye, normal wing) with a male fly (white eye, miniature wing), you get a total of 100 progeny, 41 red eye + miniature wing, 45 white eye + normal wing, 6 white eye, miniature wing, and 8 red eye, normal wing. In each category, both males and female are present, at roughly equal proportions. a). Which ones are parental types and which ones are recombinants? b). Are the two mutant alleles w and m in cis or in trans in the female parent? Why? c). What is the genetic distance between the two genes? Please show your calculations. d). A third gene vg on the X chromosome is 3 cM apart from the w gene.
