In owl, barring (B) is sex linked and dominant recessive allele (b) producing solid black color when homozygous. Silky feathers (s) is a recessive autosomal gene as opposed to non-silky (S). If black cocks, heterozygous for non-silky, are crossed to barred, silky hens, what genotype and phenotype will be produced? (Sex-linked genes can be written as XAXA for female and XAY for male since superscript function is not available) i. What is the genotype of the cock?________ (no spaces) ii. What are the possible genotypes of the hen?________, _______ (no spaces) iii. Write the genotype of the F1 when the hen is homozygous dominant for barring. _______, _________, ________, ________ (no spaces)
