c. The F1 plants of problem b above are self-pollinated. (For this problem, assume that no
crossing-over has taken place.)

Part B Maize Genetics Aleurone Color and Endosperm Characteristics
In the corn grain, the aleurone layer is a single layer of cells between the pericarp and the
endosperm. The color of the aleurone layer is determined by several interacting genes, one of
which, R, is responsible for anthocyanin production in the aleurone layer. Homozygous dominant
(RR) and heterozygous (Rr) genotypes result in a purple aleurone layer and the homozygous
recessive (rr) genotype results in a colorless one. The grains will appear either purple or yellow
rather than purple or colorless as you might expect. The yellow is due to the presence of yellow
endosperm below the colorless, transparent aleurone layer.
The allele Su produces starchy endosperm and the allele su produces sweet endosperm.
Su is completely dominant over su. When the kernels dry, SuSu and Susu grains are smooth, while
susu grains are wrinkled.
Predict what phenotypic ratio of purple-smooth; purple-wrinkled; yellow-smooth;
yellow-wrinkled kernels you expect to observe.
37. What is your expected dihybrid F2 phenotypic ratio.
38. What is your null hypothesis?
I tol
39. What is your alternative hypothesis?

Dihybrid Cross:
Examine an ear of corn representing an F2 generation. Do not remove any grains from
the ears of corn, do not remove the plastic sleeves that cover the ears, and please handle
the ears carefully. If you wish, you can use a very small piece of masking tape at one of the ear
to keep track of the rows as you count the grains. Do not count all of the purple and then return
to count all of the yellow. This will lead to some grains being counted twice and some not being
counted at all. Rather, examine each grain one at a time and determine if it is purple or yellow
and if it is wrinkled or smooth. Work with your lab partner. One person can call out the
phenotype while the other person records the phenotype. If you are unsure how to categorize
particular grains, you may consult your lab instructor.
40. Record your results below.
Number of purple, smooth kernels 5
Number of purple, wrinkled kernels
Number of yellow, smooth kernels
Number of yellow, wrinkled kernels.

41. What are the phenotypes of the F2 generation?
Of the F1 generation.
42. What are the genotypes of the F2 generation?
Of the generation
43. How do the observed phenotypes of your ear of corn compare with the expected F2 ratio?
To calculate your expected ratio numbers given the total number of corn kernels that you
counted use the following steps:
A. Determine your expected ratio. For a dihybrid cross between two F₁ plants, both
heterozygous for both traits, you would expect a 9:3:3:1 ratio. If you add 9+3+3+1, it
equals 16. Therefore, each category is a fraction of 16. This means that you expect the 2
following fractions 9/16, 3/16, 3/16, 1/16 for each phenotypic class.
B. Determine your total number of corn kernels actually counted.
C. Multiple each fraction by the total number of corn kernels actually counted.
a. For example, if you counted 215 kernels, you would expect the following:
i. 9/16 X 215 = 121 dominant phenotype for both traits
ii. 3/16 X 215 = 40 dominant phenotype for 1 trait and recessive phenotype
for other trait
iii.
3/16 X 215 = 40 dominant phenotype for 1 trait and recessive phenotype
for other trait
iv. 1/16 X 215 = 14 recessive phenotype for both traits o
D. Add the 4 resulting numbers to verify that they add up to your total number
E. Compare the 4 resulting numbers (your expected numbers) to your actual numbers using
Chi Square statistical analysis (to be completed later in Exercise III).
