Background and/or InstructionsProblem N° 9Objective: To apply the concept ofcodominance in the prediction of horse coatcolor.In codominance, both alleles are expressed;both gene products are measurable orvisible as an additional phenotype that isneither dominant nor recessive norintermediate. In incomplete (partial)dominance an intermediate trait isproduced.Cremello:Palomino:Chestnut:almost whitegolden with lighter mane and tailreddish brownCoat color of horses is a very complex trait.The colors cremello, chestnut and palominocan be explained using a codominant modelThe following table gives ratios obtained in matings of the above horse (Equus caballus) varieties:CrossParentsOffspringof inheritance and are known to becremello x cremelloall cremellodetermined by alleles at a single locus inhorses.chestnut x chestnutall chestnutFor this problem, use the genotypes:IIcremello x chestnutall palominoC'C' = cremelloC'C? = chestnutIVpalomino x palomino% chestnut% palomino% cremelloc'c' = palomino.a. If cross IV (palomino X palomino) is represented by C'C² x c'C², what are the genotypic proportions ofthe offspring?Locus = is the physical position of an alleleon a chromosome (plural loci). As theposition of a gene (or allelic form of one),the concept of locus becomes importantwhen mapping chromosomes, i.e., locatingthe positions of loci.b. Cross I (remello x chestnut) can be represented by C'C* x C°C², what is the genotype of the palominooffspring?Although mass sequencing projects mayhave obviated the need for chromosomemapping, the association (linkage) betweenor among alleles led to importantdiscoveries and applications in genetics.c. Why do crosses I (cremello X cremello) and II (chesnut X chesnut) produce all cremello and all chestnut,respectively, if cremello X chestnut produces all palomino?

In rabbits, fur colour can be either grey, black or blotchy. Blotchy is present as grey and black spotspresent in no specific pattern. Males are almost always either grey or black, while females can begrey, black or blotchy. However, a male individual is found that shows the blotchy pattern, and youexpect a non-disjunction event might be to blame. Explain the inheritance of coat colour in rabbits,and also provide an explanation for the blotchy male.
Name: Human Phenotypes Simple dominance inheritance pattern: Q: How many phenotypes are evident in patterns of simple dominance? What are they? If a phenotype results from simple dominance, which two genotypes cannot be distinguished? Which phenotype is always representative of the genotype? Now determine your personal inheritance of the following traits. As you read through the following descriptions, you'll identify your trait, and determine your phenotype. Your trait will be one of the two Shape of the face. Most facial characteristics are affected by many different genes acting together (multiple factors or polygenic inheritance). For this trait we have simplified the nature of this trait by assuming it is the result of a single gene. Oval shape is dominant (needs only homozygous (both alleles are the same, either dominant or recessive) or heterozygous (one dominant allele and one recessive allele). Square shape is recessive (requires that both alleles are the recessive allele in…
Incomplete Dominance: 1) On the planet Iota Geminorum IV there exists a small hairy animal known as a tribble. It comes in three colors blue, red, and purple. This trait is controlled by a single locus with incompletre dominance. A homozygous CBCB is blue, a homozygous CRCR is red, and a heterozygous CBCR is purple. a. What would be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring if a blue tribble were crossed with a red one? b. If the offspring in #1 were crossed what would the genotypic and phenotypic ratios be of this generation?
In domestic cats, the allele (L) is a dominant allele for short-hair trait. The recessive allele for long hair is (I). A female cat with a LI genotype has kittens with a male cat with a II genotype. What is the probability that a kitten has short hair? Hint: it may be helpful to draw a Punnett Square.

| 3 4 |IL 1 I Section 5: Trihybrid cross and Laws of probability For a trihybrid cross, in which inheritance of alleles for three genes is tracked, drawing a Punnett square that combines all three genes may not be practical. Instead the laws of probability may be used. The product law of probabilities says that when alleles for separate genes segregate independently, we can figure out the probability of a particular combined genotype by multiplying the probability of the alleles for each gene. 13.

Answer is: incomplete dominance, variable expressivity because in incomplete dominance, heterozygotes have a phenotype in between the homozygous dominant and recessive (described here as "less hair"). In variable expressivity, individuals with the same genotype have variations in severity of the same phenotype. Both of these characteristics are displayed in this example.
