A fruit fly with a gray body and red eyes (genotype BbPp) is mated with a fly having a black and purple eyes (genotype bbpp).
Show diagrammatically a genetic cross between the two flies and the possible genotypes and phenotypes of F1. What ratio of offspring would you expect if the body-colour and eye-colour genes are on different chromosome (unlinked)?
When mating is actually carried out, most of the offspring look like the parents, but 3% have a gray body and purple eyes, and 3% have a black body and red eyes. Compare and discuss the observation with your answer in part (
In the following cross, imagine that you have a female fly that has two Xs and one Y
due to a nondisjunction event in her mother's germ cells. Draw out what the
possible gametes are for both the female and the male and also a Punnett square
showing the genotypes, phenotypes, and sex of the possible flies as a result of this
cross. You do not need to provide the probabilities of each of these.

The recessive allele s causes Drosophila to have small wings, and the s+ allele causes normal wings. This gene is known to be X linked. If a small-winged male is crossed with a homozygous wild-type female, what ratio of normal to small-winged flies can be expected in each sex in the F1? If F1 flies are intercrossed, what F2 progeny ratios are expected? What progeny ratios are predicted if F1 females are backcrossed with their father?

- In corn, two independent, recessive nuclear genes, japonica (j) and iojap (ij), produce variegation (green and white striped leaves). Matings between individuals heterozygous for japonica always produce 3 green:1 striped individuals regardless of how the cross is performed. You have a variegated plant that could be either jj or ijij . What cross can you make to determine the genotype of this plant, and what results do you expect in the F1 generation in each case?arrow_forwardConsider a cross between a true breeding purple flowered pea plant (genotype PP) and a true breeding white flowered pea plant (genotype pp) that produces all heterozygous F1 offspring. An F1 intercross is conducted between two of the F1 offspring, resulting in the F2 generation. What is the expected phenotype outcome of the F2 individuals resulting from the F1 intercross? 100% white offspring 100% purple offspring 3 purple: 1 white 1 purple: 2 light purple: 1 white 1 purple: 1 whitearrow_forwardA female of genotype a b c + + + produces 100 meiotic tetrads. Of these, 68 show no crossover events. Of the remaining 32, 20 show a crossover between a and b, 10 show a crossover between b and c, and 2 show a double crossover between a and b and between b and c. Of the 400 gametes produced, how many of each of the 8 different genotypes will be produced? Assuming the order a–b–c and the allele arrangement previously shown, what is the map distance between these loci?arrow_forward
- In onion, male sterility is produced when the nuclear genotype is aa and the mitochondrial gene S (sterile) are present. Any other combination of nuclear genotype and mitochondrial gene (including gene F for fertile) will result in a male fertile plant. Give the genotypic ratio and the phenotypic ratio or the percentage of male sterile and male fertile offspring that will be produced in the following crosses. 1. Aa + S male x aa + F female 2. Reciprocal cross of number 1. (Note that when we do reciprocal cross, we interchange/swap the genotypes of the parents (if there is a nuclear gene involved, you interchange the nuclear genotype as well). 3. Aa + S female x Aa + F male 4. Reciprocal cross of number 3.arrow_forwardIn corn (Zea mays), the wild type trait is for kernels to be round; some kernels are shrunken (S), which is caused by recessive, mutant alleles of various genes. You obtain five strains of corn with shrunken kernels, and conduct pairwise crosses between all five strains (1x1, 1x2, 1,3, etc). The results are summarized in the matrix below: if the offspring have the wild type trait, round, then they are represented with a "+"; if the offspring have the trait caused by recessive, mutant alleles, shrunken, they are marked with "S" 1 2 3 4 5 1 S 2 + S 3 + 4 5 + S S S S S S + + + S a. How many total genes are represented by these five strains? Explain your answer. b. Which of the five strains represent the same genes? (how can they be grouped, if at all). Explain your answer.arrow_forwardTwo genes, A and B, are 10 map units apart along the same chromosome. A cross was made between AAbb and aaBB individuals to produce AaBb F1 offspring. The F1 offspring were then crossed to aabb individuals to yield an F2 generation. What would be the genotype(s) of F2 offspring that carry recombinant chromosomes? (Note: recombinant chromosomes are the product of crossing over). What percentage of F2 offspring would be Aabb?arrow_forward
- In the mapping example in Fig 2, the dominant alleles were on one chromosome and the recessive alleles were on the homolog. Let’s consider a twofactor cross in which the dominant allele for one gene is on onechromosome, but the dominant allele for a second gene is on thehomolog. A cross is made between AAbb and aaBB parents. The F1offspring are AaBb. The F1 heterozygotes are then testcrossed to aabbindividuals.

Assume that genes A, B, C, and D are present in this particular order on the same chromosome. What is the minimum number of crossovers that must take place on that chromosome for the individual to generate a gamete with genotype AbCd?

- In the snail Limnaea peregra, coiling of the shell is determined by the genes D for right-hand coiled shells, and d for left-hand coiled shells. The gene for the right-hand coiled shell is dominant. The direction of coiling is determined by the genotype of the maternal parent producing the egg, regardless of the progeny's genotype. Which of the following crosses could give a left-hand coiled shell heterozygote? A. right-hand coiled dd female X left-hand coiled DD male B. left-hand coiled DD female X right-hand coiled dd male C. left-hand coiled DD female X left-hand coiled DD male D. right-hand coiled dd female X left-hand coiled dd malearrow_forwardAssume that the trihybrid cross AABBrr x aabbRR is made in a plant species.

What are the genotypes of these gametes? b) What is the probability of the parental aabbRR genotype in the F2 progeny? c) What proportion of the F2 progeny would be expected to be homozygous for all three genes?arrow_forwardIn silkmoths (Bombyx mori), red eyes (re) and white-banded wings (wb) are encoded by two mutant alleles that are recessive to those that produce wild-type traits (re+ and wb+); these two genes are on the same chromosome. A moth homozygous for red eyes and white-banded wings is crossed with a moth homozygous for the wild-type traits. The F1 have wild-type eyes and wild-type wings. The F1 are crossed with moths that have red eyes and white-banded wings in a testcross. The progeny of this testcross are wild-type eyes, wild-type wings red eyes, wild-type wings wild-type eyes, white-banded wings red eyes, white-banded wings a. What phenotypic proportions would be expected if the genes for red eyes and for white-banded wings were located on different chromosomes? b. What is the rate of recombination between the gene for red eyes and the gene for white-banded wings?arrow_forward
