In garden peas, long stems are dominant to short stems, and yellow seeds are dominant to green seeds. 100 long/yellow pea plants, all of which had one short/green parent, are interbred (bred to each other). 1600 progeny result. Please answer the following questions about these progeny. a. Assuming that these two genes are unlinked, about how many long/green pea plants would you expect to find among the offspring? b. What ratio of yellow to green seed color would you expect among the offspring? c. What would you expect the overall phenotypic ratio among the 1600 offspring to be (taking into consideration both traits)?

In tomatoes, tall (D) is dominant over dwarf (d) and smooth fruit (P) is dominant over pubescent fruit (p), which is covered with fine hairs. A farmer has two tall and smooth tomato plants, which we will call plant A and plant B. The farmer crosses plants A and B with the same dwarf and pubescent plant and obtains the following numbers of progeny: Q. Explain why different proportions of progeny are produced when plant A and plant B are crossed with the same dwarf pubescent plant.
Leaf color and stem length in a certain species of diploid flowers are controlled separately by the R and S locus. The R allele (dominant) results in red leaves while r results in yellow leaves. S (dominant) results in short stems and s results in long stems. A cross is performed between a true breeding long-stemmed red plant and a true breeding short- stemmed yellow plant. a. What is the genotype and phenotype of the resulting F1 plants? b. The resulting F1 plants are crossed with long-stemmed plants with yellow leaves. 100 offspring are collected from this cross, and the following phenotype counts are observed. phenotype long red short red count 43 8 long yellow short yellow 40 What are the corresponding genotypes for each of the four classes of the offspring from this cross? c. Using the information above, determine the genotype of the gametes contributed by "parent A" to each of the resulting offspring. Label the gamete types as parental or nonparental.
A test cross between a plant of genotype PpSs and the tester white plant with wrinkled seed coat (ppss) gives the following numbers of progeny in four phenotypic types. 14:87:83:16 (purple flower + smooth seed coat: purple flower + wrinkled seed coat: white flower + smooth seed coat: white flower + wrinkled seed coat). a. What is the expected ratio of progeny phenotypes assuming independent assortment of alleles? b. Explain how ratios of progeny show that the two genes are linked. c. How many map units separate the purple and smooth genes? Show your calculations. d. What is the “parental” genotype of the heterozygous parent? (i.e. Which alleles of the P and S loci are present on each of the two chromosomes of the doubly heterozygous parent of this test cross?)
This question deals with Mendelian Genetics. Read each part carefully before you answer it. In the following questions, assume green pea pods are dominant over yellow pea pods. a) If a pea plant that is Heterozygous for pod color is crossed with a pea plant with yellow pods, what do you expect to see in the offspring (the f1 generation)? Specifically, what genotypes, what phenotypes, and in what ratios? (Use G for the green pod gene and g for the yellow pod gene.) (It is usually helpful to write out all the possible genotypes and give the phenotype for each genotype before answering the specific question.)
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.
You have an autotetraploid plant with genotype AAaa that undergoes self-fertilization. At least two copies of the dominant allele A are needed to obtain the dominant phenotype. At what frequency will progeny with the dominant phenotype appear? Type your answer as a fraction, with no spaces (e.g., 1/16).

A breeder has some white, some Roan, and some red cattle (female) And only one round bull (male). A. What color cow would be bread to the ro bowl to guarantee the best chance of having white offspring? B. What is the probability of a red cow cross with the Roan bull resulting in a white half? explain by using parent and possible offspring genotypes. C. What is one possible way that the farmer can guarantee having over red offspring by going outside of his breeding stock? Explain by using parent and possible offspring genotypes.
