The color of spaniel dogs is controlled by a couple of alleles : B (dominant) leads to black hair [B], b to a tawny color [T]. In second independent gene, the dominant S allele gives a uniform colored fur [U] and the recessive s allele to a speckled coat [S]. A pure lineage uniformly black male is mated to a tawny speckled female. Among F2 animals, a uniformly black dog is crossed with a tawny speckled bitch. The progeny gives 1/4 [BU], 1/4 [TU], 1/4 [SB], 1/4 [ST]. How is this type of cross called and what is its goal? What are the genotypes of their parents?

Question
The color of spaniel dogs is controlled by a couple of alleles : B (dominant) leads to black hair [B], b
to a tawny color [T]. In second independent gene, the dominant S allele gives a uniform colored fur
[U] and the recessive s allele to a speckled coat [S]. A pure lineage uniformly black male is mated to a
tawny speckled female.
Among F2 animals, a uniformly black dog is crossed with a tawny speckled bitch. The
progeny gives 1/4 [BU], 1/4 [TU], 1/4 [SB], 1/4 [ST]. How is this type of cross called and what
is its goal? What are the genotypes of their parents?
