- A cross is carried out between two pure lines of tomato plants, one having regular leaves and red fruit and the other having potato leaves and yellow fruit. The F1 generation all have regular leaves and red fruit. The F1 individuals are then crossed with one another. Question text The expected phenotypic ratio for leaf shape and fruit colour genes is 9:3:3:1, if both genes are on different chromosomes and assort independently during gamete formation. The information below represents two sets of data collected from the above cross. Data Set 1 is from a population of 5000 tomato plants and Data Set 2 is from a population of 50 tomato plants. Phenotypes Observed Probabilities Data Set 1(N = 5000) Data Set 2(N = 50) Regular Red 0.58 0.050 Regular Yellow 0.16 0.29 Potato Red 0.20 0.050 Potato Yellow 0.060 0.61 A.

Test your hypothesis statistically using the chi-square method and indicate whether you accept or reject your hypothesis. Show your solutions.arrow_forwardImagine that the genes for seed color and seed shape are located on the same chromosome. A cross is made between two true-breeding plants. One plant produces green wrinkled seed (rryy) and the second parent produced round yellow seeds (RRYY).

- Consider three yellow, round peas, labeled A, B, and C. Each was grown into a plant and crossed to a plant grown from a green, wrinkled pea. Exactly 100 peas derived from each cross were sorted into phenotypic classes as follows: A: 51 yellow, round 49 green, round B: 100 yellow, round C: 24 yellow, round 26 yellow, wrinkled 25 green, round 25 green, wrinkled What are the genotypes of plants A, B, and C?

When the seed parent was O. hookeri, the plastids of the progeny were yellow; but when the seed parent was O. muricata, the plastids of the progeny were green. How might this difference in the results of reciprocal crosses be explained?arrow_forward
- In Mendel's genetic experiments many characteristics of the plants were quantified, such as their height (tall or short), flower position (axial or terminal), and seed color (colored or white). Suppose 100 plants are measured, and 37 are tall with axial flowers and colored seeds. Further, suppose a total of 26 plants have white seeds, 4 of them being short and 7 having terminal flowers. There are no short plants with terminal flowers, and the total number of short plants is 12. What is the probability a randomly selected plant will have flowers in the terminal position?
