Pepper plants of the species Capsicum annuum produce peppers of 4 different colors (red, orange, yellow, or white). A true-beeding red pepper plant was crossed with a true-breeding white pepper plant and all of the offspring were red. When these F1 red peppers were self fertilized they produced progeny of all four varieties in the following ratio (9 red : 3 orange : 3 yellow : 1 white). What can you conclude about pepper color in these plants? there are 4 alleles of the pepper color gene the genes for pepper color are linked pepper color is controlled by one gene pepper color is controlled by two genes

The F1 flies described in question 1 were mated with brown-eyed flies from a true-breeding line. What phenotypes would you expect the offspring to have? (a) all with red eyes (b) all with brown eyes (c) half with red eyes and half with brown eyes (d) red-eyed females and brown-eyed males (e) brown-eyed females and red-eyed males
Figure 8.10 In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white (p), and yellow peas (Y) are dominant to green (y). What are the possible genotypes and phenotypes for a cross between PpYY and ppYy pea plants? How many squares would you need to complete a Punnett square analysis of this cross?
You perform a cross between two true-breeding strains of zucchini, One has green fruit and the other has yellow fruit. The F1 plants are all green, but when these are crossed, the F2 plants consist of 9 green: 7 yellow. A. Assuming that wild-type zucchini are green, how would you describe the phenomenon that occurred in the F1 of part (e) of the parents and progeny?.
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?
Pea plants with purple pollen and long-shaped pollen were crossed with each other withthe following offspring: 296 purple long-shaped pollen; 19 with purple round-shapedpollen; 27 with red long-shaped pollen; 85 with red round-shaped pollen. Explain thisbizarre outcome!
A farmer crossed a tall (T) pea plant carrying yellow seeds and a dwarf pea plant (t) carrying green seeds . Tall is dominant over the dwarf and yellow is dominant over the green. Fertilization of the first generation pea plants produced a total of 16 second filial generation offsprings of the pea plants. How many tall pea plants that will have green seeds can you expect to be produced? What will be the genotype of these plants (Homozygous? Heterozygous? Or Both?).
A pea plant that is dwarf with green, wrinkled seeds was crossedto a true-breeding plant that is tall with yellow, round seeds. TheF1 generation was allowed to self-fertilize. What types of gametes,and in what proportions, would the F1 generation make? Whatwould be the ratios of genotypes and phenotypes of the F2generation?
A true-breeding plant with round and green seeds was crossed to atrue-breeding plant with wrinkled and yellow seeds. The F1 plantswere allowed to self-fertilize. What is the probability of obtainingthe following plants in the F2 generation: two that have round,yellow seeds; one with round, green seeds; and two with wrinkled,green seeds?
In the garden pea, orange pods (o) are recessive to green pods (+), and sensitivityto pea mosaic virus (v) is recessive to resistance to the virus (+). A plant withorange pods and sensitivity to the virus was crossed to a true-breeding plant withgreen pods and resistance to the virus. The F1 progeny were then test-crossed toplants with orange pods and sensitivity to the virus with the following results:160 orange pods, virus sensitive 36 orange pods, virus resistant165 green pods, virus resistant 39 green pods, virus sensitive 1. What are the gamete frequencies of the recombinants and non-recombinants? 2. What are the expected frequencies of the recombinant and non-recombinantgenotypes?
Two genes of a flower, one controlling blue (B) versus white(b) petals and the other controlling round (R) versus oval (r)stamens, are linked and are 10 map units apart. You cross ahomozygous blue oval plant with a homozygous white round plant. The resulting F1 progeny are crossed with homozygouswhite oval plants, and 1,000 offspring plants are obtained.How many plants of each of the four phenotypes do youexpect?
