In an attempt to determine all the genes involved in hair color in guinea pigs, you identify four lines of true-breeding guinea pigs (hair is normally brown in this type of guinea pig). Shown in the table below are the resulting phenotypes of the offspring from your complementation test, in which you crossed the fourguinea pig lines in all possible combinations: (+) represents normal brown hair color, (-) represents white hair. 23 1 2 3 4 0 1 02 O 3 04 1 0 1 and 2 1 and 3 + O2 and 4 O2 and 3 1 and 4 3 and 4 - + 4 + Part 1 How many different genes are represented in these four lines of guinea pigs? + + Part 2 Which lines are actually defined by a mutation in the same genes?

Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
The pedigree below shows the phenotypes of the ABO blood groups and Rhesus factors [positive (+) and negative (-)] for several members of a family. I (B+ AB- 1 2 3 4 II O- A+ В- B- AB+ A+ 1 2 4 5 6 a. What are the ABO blood group genotypes of individuals I-1 and I-2? b. Which child/ren of individual I-4 can donate blood to him? c. Which individual in the pedigree can donate blood to all the other individuals in the pedigree?
The genes responsible for albinism (A or a) and pink eyes (P or p) in mice are linked and wild-type pigmentation is dominant in both traits. A homozygous wild-type mouse is mated with an albino, pink-eyed mouse. The resulting F1 mice are crossed with albino, pink-eyed mice. The F2 progeny of this testcross are: 22 7 wild-type body color, wild-type eyes albino body color, wild-type eyes wild-type body color, pink eyes albino body color, pink eyes 10.000 3 18 How many cM apart are the albinism and pink-eye genes? O 50 O 40 O 30 O 20 O 10
Two fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) were crossed. The cross was between a homozygous red-eyed, wingless female and a white-eyed male heterozygous for wings. Recall that red eyes (R) is dominant over white eyes (r) and is inherited on the X chromosome (sex-linked) and as such, eye colour alleles should be written as superscript. In addition, the autosomal trait wings (W) is dominant over wingless (w). 1. List the female genotype 2. List the male genotype 3. Construct a Punnett Square for this dihybrid cross on a piece of paper, to determine what the offspring of such a cross would be with respect to sex, eye colour & wings. 4. Using the information from your Punnett Square answer the following: a. What genotypes did you get (list all genotype combinations; if you have more than one of the same kind, you do NOT have to re-list it.) b. What are the phenotypic ratios of the offspring with respect to sex, eye colour and wings?
You believe that the gene you're investigating, eyes absent, is an autosomal recessive mutant allele F7 ge in Drosophila. You set up a cross between a true-breeding mutant male and a true-breeding wildtype female to obtain the F1 generation. You then cross the F1 flies. In the F2 offspring, you observe the following: 237 wild-type males 180 wild-type females 70 mutant males 83 mutant females Based on these findings, is the mutant allele autosomal recessive? How do you know?
A female animal with genotype A/a ⋅ B/b is crossed with a double-recessive male (a/a ⋅ b/b). Their progeny include 442 A/a ⋅ B/b, 458 a/a ⋅ b/b, 46 A/a ⋅ b/b, and 54 a/a ⋅ B/b. Explain these results.
E. W. Lindstrom crossed two corn plants with green seedlings and obtained the following progeny: 3583 green seedlings, 853 virescentwhite seedlings, and 260 yellow seedlings . Q. Explain how color is determined in these seedlings.
A recessive maternal effect mutant in zebrafish, called ichabod, results in embryos lacking heads that are non-viable. You have been instructed to identify females that are homozygous for the ichabod mutant allele. At your disposal are a tank of wild-type fish (males and females), a tank of male and female parental fish that are all heterozygous for the ichabod mutant allele (ichabod/+), and a tank of F1 fish derived from a cross between a heterozygous male and heterozygous female (ichabod/+). Which of the following would be a way to identify females that are homozygous mutant, i.e. ichabod/ichabod? Select all answers that would work.
A standard three-point mapping is conducted for recessive mutations in autosomal genes purple eye (pr), curved wing ( c) and black body (b). Their wild type alleles are also used for genetic mapping. An F1 Drosophila female heterozygous for purple eye (pr), curved wing (c) and black (b) is crossed to a triply homozygous mutant male. The observed numbers and phenotypes of the offspring are as follows: 360 pr c b 380 pr+ c+ b+ 104 pr c+ b 96 pr+ c b+ 30 pr c b+ 20 pr+ c+ b 6 pr c+ b+ 4 pr+ c b PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING: A) State the order of genes on this chromosome. B) Calculate map distances between the gene pairs: pr-c, pr-b, c-b. Show calculations, state the number of map units and which gene pairs they refer to.
An ear of corn has a total of 381 grains, including 216 Purple & Smooth, 79 Purple & Shrunken, 65 Yellow & Smooth, and 21 Yellow & Shrunken. This ear of corn was produced by a dihybrid cross (PpSs x PpSs) involving two pairs of heterozygous genes resulting in a theoretical (expected) ratio of 9:3:3:1. Use a chi square
A large ear of corn has a total of 433 grains, including 271 purple & smooth, 73 purple & shrunken, 63yellow & smooth, & 26 yellow & shrunken. Conduct a X^2 analysis to determine if this ear of corn was produced by adihybrid cross (PpRr x PpRr) resulting in a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1.
A hypothetical brown frog with black spots (genotype BbSs) is test crossed with a green, unspotted frog (genotype bbss). These produce the following progeny: brown + spotted: 64 brown + unspotted: 134 green + spotted: 130 green + unspotted: 72 a. What is the genotype of the original dihybrid frog? Specify which alleles are on each chromosome of the brown frog with black spots (i.e. AB/ab or Ab/aB). b. How many map units separate the colour and spot genes? Show your calculations.
