Pigeons display a high color variety, here we try to understand the genetic basis of mixed red & black stippling of the feathers (kitey) and their genetic relation to black and red feather color. We conducted the following crosses: Cross Offspring kitey x kitey 16 kitey 5 black 3 red kitey x black 6 kitey 7 black red x kitey 18 red 9 kitey 6 black Have a look at the cross results and develop a hypothesis to explain the inheritance of kitey, black and red feather color in pigeons (Hint: assume that 2 loci are involved and some type of epistasis occurs) QUESTION: 1. provide hypothesis 2. provide the hypothetical genotypes for each crossing

Question
- Pigeons display a high color variety, here we try to understand the genetic basis of mixed red & black stippling of the feathers (kitey) and their genetic relation to black and red feather color. We conducted the following crosses:
Cross |
Offspring |
kitey x kitey |
16 kitey 5 black 3 red |
kitey x black |
6 kitey 7 black |
red x kitey |
18 red 9 kitey 6 black |
Have a look at the cross results and develop a hypothesis to explain the inheritance of kitey, black and red feather color in pigeons
(Hint: assume that 2 loci are involved and some type of epistasis occurs)
QUESTION: 1. provide hypothesis
2. provide the hypothetical genotypes for each crossing
