Different populations of Dr. Remington's rock cress plants (Arabidopsis lyrata) are pure-breeding for different combinations of hairy vs. smooth leaves (alleles H vs. h at one gene), and lobed vs. non-lobed leaves (alleles L vs. I at a second gene linked to the first). He has a tray of F₁ plants with hairy lobed leaves (genotype Hh Ll), but lost the label so he doesn't know which populations were crossed to produce them. He does a testcross of the F₁ plants, and obtains the following progeny: 81 hairy lobed, 18 hairy non-lobed, 24 smooth lobed, and 77 smooth non- lobed. What alleles were on each of the two homologous chromosomes in the F₁ plants, and what were the phenotypes of the two parent populations of the F₁ plants?

Different populations of Dr. Remington's rock cress plants (Arabidopsis lyrata) are pure-breeding
for different combinations of hairy vs. smooth leaves (alleles H vs. h at one gene), and lobed vs.
non-lobed leaves (alleles L vs. I at a second gene linked to the first). He has a tray of F₁ plants
with hairy lobed leaves (genotype Hh Ll), but lost the label so he doesn't know which
populations were crossed to produce them. He does a testcross of the F₁ plants, and obtains the
following progeny: 81 hairy lobed, 18 hairy non-lobed, 24 smooth lobed, and 77 smooth non-
lobed.
What alleles were on each of the two homologous chromosomes in the F₁ plants, and what were
the phenotypes of the two parent populations of the F₁ plants?
