Assume that the length of wheat leaves is controlled by three loci, each with two alleles: L and I, W and w, H and h. Determine the differences in leaf length between two homozygous strains of wheat. Assume each allele contributes equally to the length of the plant leaves. One homozygous strain, ll ww hh, has leaves that are 100 mm in length, and the other strain, LL WW HH, has 220 mm leaves. The two homozygous strains are crossed, and the resulting F₁ are selfed to produce F₂ progeny. What length will the leaves of the Ll Ww Hh genotype plant be? leaf length: What proportion of the F₂ progeny will have the same phenotype as the LI Ww Hh genotype? Input answer as a decimal. proportion: mm

O Macmillan Learning Assume that the length of wheat leaves is controlled by three loci, each with two alleles: L and I, W and w, H and h. Determine the differences in leaf length between two homozygous strains of wheat. Assume each allele contributes equally to the length of the plant leaves. One homozygous strain, Il ww hh, has leaves that are 100 mm in length, and the other strain, LL WW HH, has 220 mm leaves. The two homozygous strains are crossed, and the resulting F₁ are selfed to produce F₂ progeny. What length will the leaves of the Ll Ww Hh genotype plant be? leaf length: What proportion of the F2 progeny will have the same phenotype as the LI Ww Hh genotype?
