In tomatoes, serrated leaves (C) are dominant to lobed leaves and purple stems (P) are dominant to green stems (p) At the next cross between two plants. Two pure plants (CCpp X ccPP) are crossed and the F1 progeny are crossed. The following population of individuals is observed in F2: 192 toothed leaves, purple stems; 64 serrated leaves, green stems; 45 lobed leaves, purple stems; 19 lobed leaves, green stems. Propose a hypothesis to explain the results and using Chi square deny or accept your hypothesis.

- Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?Sunflowers with flowers 10 cm in diameter are crossed with a plant that has 20-cm flowers. The F1 plants have flowers 15 cm in diameter. In the F2 generation, 4 flowers are 10 cm in diameter and 4 are 20 cm in diameter. Between these are 5 phenotypic classes with diameters intermediate to those at the extremes. a. Assuming that the alleles that contribute to flower diameter act additively, how many genes control flower size in this strain of sunflowers? b. How much does each additive allele contribute to flower diameter? c. What size flower makes up the largest phenotypic class?In cucumbers, speckled fruit color (u') is dominant to uniform fruit color (u), and large spines (ss") are dominant to small spines (ss). These two genes are linked at a map distance of 20.4 m.u. A true-breeding cucumber plant with speckled fruit and large spines is crossed with a true-breeding plant with uniform fruit color and small spines. One of the F1 plants is crossed with a plant with uniform fruit color and small spines. What percentage of the offspring of this cross are expected to have uniform fruit color and small spines? 39.8% 10.2% 79.6% 20.4%
- In tomato plants, tall vine (D) is dominant over dwarf vine (d) and round fruit (O) is dominant over oval-shaped fruit (o). Two tall, round-fruit shape plants (plants 1 and 2) are crossed with dwarf, oval-shape fruit plants. The results are as follows: i) Why is there a difference in the proportionate number of plants in each phenotypic class of the offspring resulting from test crosses of plants 1 and 2? (ii) Calculate the recombination frequency between the genes D/d and O/o in tomatoes. (iii) Draw a chromosome map for these genes. (Use underscore (_) to draw the line for the map)In tomatoes, regular leaves (L) are multilobed and serrated and potato leaves (l) are broad, smooth, and single (Image 1). Red fruit (F) is dominant to yellow fruit (f). A cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1 individuals are then crossed with one another. Complete a Punnett square to determine the expected F2 progeny on the basis of Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the alleles for one gene segregate independently of the alleles for other genes during gamete formation.In tomatoes, regular leaves (L) are multilobed and serrated and potato leaves (l) are broad, smooth, and single (Image 1).

- Two genes in tomatoes are 61 mu apart; normal fruit (F) isdominant to fasciated fruit (f ), and normal number of leaves(Lf ) is dominant to leafy (lf ). A true-breeding plant with anormal number of leaves and fruit was crossed to a leafy plantwith fasciated fruit. The F1 offspring were then crossed to leafyplants with fasciated fruit. If this cross produced 600 offspring,what are the expected numbers of plants in each of the fourpossible categories: normal leaf number, normal fruit; normalleaf number, fasciated fruit; leafy, normal fruit; and leafy,fasciated fruit?Two pure-breeding lines of petunia plants are crossed. Line 1 plants grow to a height of 54 cm, and Line 2 plants grow to a height of 18 cm. Petunia plant height is controlled by three genes, A, B and C. Line 1 has the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁, and line 2 has the genotype A2A2B₂B₂C₂C₂.
