- In fruit flies, L= long wings and l = short wings. When a long-winged fly is crossed with a short winged fly, the offspring exhibit a 1:1 ratio. What is the genotype of the parental flies?PURPLE VESTIGIAL DIHYBRID CROSS In the parental generation, you mate a pure-breeding wild-type female (put/pu+;vg+/vg+) with a pure-breeding purple, vestigial (pu/pu;vg/vg) to produce an F1 generation that is all wild-type (pu*/pu;vg+/vg). Note that the F1 flies are all dihybrid. Next, you mate several F1 dihybrid females (pu*/pu;vg+/vg) with tester males, which are purple, vestigial (pu/pu;vg/vg). The offspring of this dihybrid testcross are: Phenotype Genotype Tester Gamete Dihybrid Gamete Number Wild-type 437 417 77 59 Purple, vestigial Vestigial Purple Copy the table into your notes and derive the dihybrid gametes following the example in the first section. The columns in blue (phenotypes and numbers of offspring) are what you can see and count. The genotypes of the testcross offspring (orange) must be deduced from the phenotypes and knowing that the tester contributed pu vg gametes. Finally, you can deduce the dihybrid gametes (green) by subtracting the tester gamete contribution…A cross between the F1 individual in Figure 21.6 and a plant with genotype B-I B-I will produce progeny with what phenotype?
- What genetic phenomenon does the production of a blue F1 from pink and white parents represent?In silkmoths (Bombyx mori), red eyes (re) and white-banded wings (wb) are encoded by two mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild-type traits (re+ and wb+); these two genes are on the same chromosome. A moth homozygous for red eyes and white-banded wings is crossed with a moth homozygous for the wild-type traits. The F1 have wild-type eyes and wild-type wings. The F1 are crossed with moths that have red eyes and white-banded wings in a testcross. The progeny of this testcross are wild-type eyes, wild-type wings red eyes, wild-type wings wild-type eyes, white-banded wings red eyes, white-banded wings a. What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes? b. What is the rate of recombination between the gene for red eyes and the gene for white-banded wings?Vermilion eye color in Drosophila is sex-linked and recessive. What would be the phenotypes of maleand female progenies of a cross between a 6 vermilion female and 6 wild-type (red) male. what is the f1 and f2 generation. if a reciprocal cross is done containing 6 WT females with 6 mutant males what is the F1 and F2 generation. Do they contain the single gene or double gene?
- In a cross between two varieties of corn, gl1gl1Ws3Ws3 (egg parent) * Gl1Gl1ws3ws3 (pollen parent), a triploid offspring was produced with the genetic constitution Gl1Gl1gl1Ws3ws3ws3. From which parent, egg or pollen, did the 2n gamete originate? Is another explanation possible? Explain.Why do the F1 chickens with genotype Cc Ii have white feathers?What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes?
- A mutation of Drosophila has a wing condition known as beaded. When a beaded fly was crossed with a pure-line normal fly, 53 beaded and 47 normal F1 's were produced. When two of the F, beaded flies were mated, 67 beaded and 33 normal F2's were produced. Explain the genetics of the beaded trait and give the genotypes of all P and F1 generation flies.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 cMIn a cross between a white-eyed female (ww) and a red-eyed male (w+Y), nearly all the progeny were either red-eyed females (w+w) or white-eyed males (wY). However, about 1 in every 2000 F1 flies had an "exceptional phenotype" and was either a white-eyed female or red-eyed male. How did Bridges explain this unexpected result? A) Crossing over B) Incomplete cytokinesis C) Incorrect synapsis D) Nondisjunction E) Pseudoautosomal region
