The best way to determine the genotype for a plant presenting with dominant phenotypes is by performing a test cross. Test crosses are always performed with a true-breeding plant with recessive traits. What would be the phenotype and genotype of the plant you would need to perform the test-cross with your tall, purple plant?After performing the test-cross with your unknown purple, tall plant you find that all your resulting plants are tall; half have white flowers, and half have purple flowers. What was the genotype of your original purple, tall plant?
A plant geneticist is examining the mode of inheritance of flower color in two closely related species of exotic plants. The first species may have two pure-breeding lines—one produces a distinct red flower; and the other produces flowers with no color at all, or very pale yellow flowers. However, she cannot be sure. A cross of these varieties produces all pink-flowered progeny. The second species exhibits similar pure-breeding varieties; that is, one variety produces red flowers; and the other produces an albino or very pale yellow flower. A cross of these two varieties, however, produces orange-flowered progeny exclusively. Analyze the mode of inheritance of flower color in these two plant species.
In Bean plants two genes are defined below with the lower case letter indicating the recessive allele. yellow flower color a = green flower color. B = spotted pods b = plain pods A = A parental generation cross is made between a pure breeding plant with yellow flower color and spotted pods, to a pure breeding plant with green flower color and plain pods. Write this parental generation cross using the symbols defined above. Write the genotype of the F1 plants. An F1 plant is then testcrossed. Write this testcross using the symbols defined above.
In Japanese four o'clock plants red (R) color is incompletely dominant over white (r) flowers, and the heterogynous condition (Rr) results in plants with pink flowers.

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 scientist is investigating the possibility that two traits in a particular plant are determined by genes that are on the same chromosome. The scientist crossed a plant that is homozygous dominant for both traits with a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits. The heterozygous offspring in the F1 generation were then crossed with a plant that is homozygous recessive for both traits. The results expected if the genes independently assort and the observed results are presented in the table. Which of the following critical values should the scientist use for the chi-square analysis of the data? a.7.81 b.3.00 c.3.84 d.8.00
picture shows the results of a cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant. Q. What phenotypes and proportions will be produced if a tall F1 plant is backcrossed to the short parent?
Stem length in plants is controlled by two CODOMINANT alleles of one autosomal - one allele, B, adds 2 cm to the length of the plant, and another allele, b reduces length by 0.5 cm. The base length of the plant's stem is 10 cm. A plant breeder wants to breed plants that are exactly 14.5 cm in stem length. He starts with crossing two heterozygotes, Bb x Bb. gene Assuming that you can ONLY breed plants of the same stem length, what cross(es) would the breeder have to set up in order to achieve this? Let's (i) (ii) that stem length segregates independently from flower color (also a say monogenic, autosomal, biallelic trait). If you crossed a homozygote from (i) i.e. a bb and homozygote red flowers with a plant that is homozygote BB and homozygote white flowers, intercross the F1, and observe the following numbers of progeny in the F2 generation: (iii) Height Flower Color Observed Number 14 cm Red 2 14 cm 14 cm Pink White 11.5 cm Red 7 11.5 cm Pink 13 11.5 cm White 6. 9 cm Red 9 cm Pink 6.…

Three recessive traits in garden pea plants are as follows: yellow pods are recessive to green pods, bluish green seedlings are recessive to green seedlings, creeper (a plant that cannot stand up) is recessive to normal. A true breeding normal plant with green pods and green seedlings was crossed to a creeper with yellow pods and bluish green seedlings. The F1 plants were then crossed to creepers with yellow pods and bluish green seedlings. The following results were obtained for the F2 offspring: 2059 green pods, green seedlings, normal 151 green pods, green seedlings, creeper 281 green pods, bluish green seedlings, normal 15 green pods, bluish green seedlings, creeper 2041 yellow pods, bluish green seedlings, creeper 157 yellow pods, bluish green seedlings, normal 282 yellow pods, green seedlings, creeper 11 yellow pods green seedlings, normal Construct a genetic map that shows the…
Dominant and recessive alleles of a gene in garden peas, G and g, cause seeds to be yellow and green, respectively. Dominant and recessive alleles, F and f, of another gene cause seeds to be spotted or not with violet color, respectively. A plant of genotype GGFF is crossed with a plant of genotype ggff, and the F1 are allowed to self-fertilize. The phenotypes and numbers of F2 progeny are shown below: Phenotype of F2 Number yellow, spotted 89 green, spotted 31 yellow, not spotted 29 green, not spotted 11 Are the G,g and F,f genes linked?
