Question
Two true-breeding stocks of watermelons are crossed. One parent had sweet fruit and yellow spots, and the other had bitter fruit and no spots; all the F1 individuals were bitter with yellow spots. If 500 F2 offspring are obtained, approximately how many of them would you expect to have bitter and no spots. (Assume independent assortment).

- In corn plants, a dominant allele (I) inhibits kernel colour, but the recessive allele (i) permits colour when homozygous. At a different locus, the dominant gene P causes purple kernel colour, and the homozygous recessive genotype pp causes red kernels. If plants that are heterozygous at both loci are crossed, what will be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 generation?arrow_forwardIdentify the genotypes of the pea flower plants for each generation P (Guadretieding parents) Phenotypes Purple flowers : Genotypes White flowers 1 2 F1 Gerleyatids) Phenotypes All purple flowers : Genotypes 3 Self- or cross-pollination F2 Generation Phenotypes Purple flowers : Genotypes White flowers 4arrow_forwardIn mangoes wide leaf and narrow leaf are alternative characters and wide (W) is dominant to narrow (w). Red stem and green stem are another pair of characters with red (R) dominant to green (r) . A true breeding wide, green mango plant was crossed with a true-breeding narrow, red plant and the F1 plants were interbred. 337 F2 plants were produced with the following phenotypes; 202 wide, red; 69 wide, green; 15 narrow, green; 51 narrow, red. What probability is associated with the Chi Sq value you obtain?arrow_forward
- A researcher crosses two tall plants, however, one quarter (1/4) of the offspring from this crossing have short stems. Complete the punnett square. 6 b EBE Bb Besides Bb, what is the other possible genotype for a tall plant? What is the genotype of a short plant? Bb bbarrow_forwardIn snapdragons, red flower color is incompletely dominant to white flower color. Tall is completely dominant to short. You cross a true breeding red-flowered tall plant to a true breeding white-flowered short plant. You cross the F1 offspring to each other. In the F2, what is the probability of offspring that are white-flowered and tall?arrow_forwardIn radishes, flower color may be red, purple, or white. The edible portion of the radish may be long or oval. When only flower color is studied, no dominance is evident, and red x white crosses yield all purple. Determine the appropriate allele symbols and indicate which genotypes lead to which phenotypes. If the F1 purple plants described above are interbred, what will be the genotype and phenotype ratios in the F2 generation? Regarding radish shape, long is dominant to oval in the typical Mendelian fashion. What will be the phenotype ratios in the F2 generation of a cross between a true-breeding red, long radish and a white, oval radish?arrow_forward
- B b В The Punnett square above shows a cross between two sweet pea plants in Mendel's greenhouse. Both parents have blue flowers (Bb). Which statement describes the offspring expected from this cross? 50% white-flowered and 50% blue-flowered 75% white-flowered and 25% blue-flowered 75% blue-flowered and 25% white-flowered D) 100% blue-flowered and 0% white-floweredarrow_forwardA farmer crossed a round-shaped (T) and yellow-colored (Y) seed plant carrying yellow seeds (Y) and a wrinkled (t) and green-colored (g) seed plant. The traits of first plant is dominant over the second one. Fertilization of the first-generation plants produced a total of 16 offsprings of the plants. What will be the genotypes and phenotypes of the offsprings. (Use punnette square to answer the question) (4). Also, list up the Homozygous and Heterozygous lines for this cross (1).arrow_forward
