- A PORTION OF THE LINKAGE MAP OF CHROMOSOME 2 IN THE TOMATO IS ILLUSTRATED HERE. ci (compound influorescence) o (oblate) - 15 CM 20 CM p (peach) THE OBLATE PHENOTYPE IS A FLATTENED FRUIT, THE PEACH PHENOTYPE IS HAIRY FRUIT (LIKE A PEACH), AND COMPOUND INFLORESCENCE MEANS CLUSTERED FLOWERS. IGNORE THE PEACH LOCUS. AMONG 1000 GAMETES PRODUCED BY A PLANT OF GENOTYPE O CI /+ +, WHAT TYPES OF GAMETES WOULD BE EXPECTED, AND WHAT NUMBER WOULD BE EXPECTED OF EACH?arrow_forwardA phenotypically abnormal individual has a phenotypically normalfather with an inversion on one copy of chromosome 7 and a phenotypicallynormal mother without any changes in chromosomestructure. The orders of genes along the two copies of chromosome7 in the father are as follows: R T D M centromere P U X Z C (normal chromosome 7)R T D U P centromere M X Z C (inverted chromosome 7) The phenotypically abnormal offspring has a chromosome 7 withthe following order of genes: R T D M centromere P U D T R Using a sketch, explain how this chromosome was formed. In youranswer, explain where the crossover occurred (i.e., between whichtwo genes).arrow_forwardAn individual that is heterozygous for an inversion has the following chromosomes(∗ is the centromere):M N O P Q • R S T Um n o t s r • q p u Assume that a crossover occurred between P and Q. Starting with “M” allele, list the remaining genes in order (NO spaces between the letters) of the chromosome resulting from crossing over. You must use upper and lower-case letters correctly and the * symbol for the centromere(s).arrow_forward
- In Drosophila melanogaster, red eyes are dominant over white and the variation for this characteristic is on the X chromosome. Vestigial wings (v) are recessive to normal (V) for an autosomal gene. Predict the appearance of offspring of the following crosses: XW/XwV/v×Xw/Y v/v, Xw/XwV/v×XW/Y V/v.arrow_forwardRice has a chromosome number of 2n = 24. If different euploids and aneuploids are available in rice, identify the chromosomal mutation, chromosome configuration, chromosome number, and/or type of gametes in each of the mutations below. Example: For 10B, the answer is “10 II + 2 I”arrow_forwardAn inversion heterozygote has the following inversion chromosome: What would be the products if a crossover occurred betweengenes H and I on the inverted chromosome and a normalchromosome?arrow_forward
- In corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of the corn plants (i.e the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile corn plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male sterile lines Using the cardboard chips, simulate the crosses indicated below. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offsprings in each cross, and properly label the nucleus and the cytoplasm of each individual in the cross Legend male sterile cytoplasm Male fertile cytoplasm FF nucleus Ff nucleus ff nucleus A. Male sterile female x FF male Explain the phenotype of the offspring B. Male sterile female x Ff male Explain the phenotype of the offspringarrow_forwardIn Drosophila,, the curled mutation (cu, chromosome 3, position 50.0) results in wings that curl up, while ebony (e, chromosome 3, position 70.7) results in a dark body.

- In corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of corn plants (i.e. the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male-fertile corn plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male-sterile lines. Using the following color-coded circles, simulate the crosses indicated below. Put the illustrations of crosses in the spaces provided. Be sure to include in the labels the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring in each cross. Big light green circle - male-sterile cytoplasm Big orange circle - male-fertile cytoplasm Small orange circle - FF nucleus Small half-light green-half-orange circle - Ff nucleus Small light-green circle - ff nucleusarrow_forwardAn individual is heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation, with the following chromosomes: A • B C D E F A • B C V W X R ST • U D E F R ST • U V W X Q. Explain why the fertility of this individual is likely to be less than the fertility of an individual without a translocation.arrow_forwardIn a human genetic study, a family with five phenotypicallynormal children was investigated. Two children were “homozygous”for a Robertsonian translocation between chromosomes19 and 20 (they contained two identical copies of the fusedchromosome). They have only 44 chromosomes but a completegenetic complement. Three of the children were “heterozygous”for the translocation and contained 45 chromosomes,with one translocated chromosome plus a normal copy of bothchromosomes 19 and 20. Two other pregnancies resulted instillbirths. It was later discovered that the parents were firstcousins. Based on this information, determine the chromosomecompositions of the parents. What led to the stillbirths? Whywas the discovery that the parents were first cousins a key pieceof information in understanding the genetics of this family?arrow_forward
