A plant breeder wants to use selective breeding to produce corn with short stalks and a high mass of grain.He could use the following varieties of cor, A, Long stalks, high mass of grain, B, Short stalks, low mass of grain or c, Long Stalks, low mass of grain. What would the plant breeder need to do to make sure he always produced corn with a short stem and a high mass of grain? Describe three steps the breeder would use.
A farmer obtained pure seed of wheat variety (Galaxy-13) but unfortunately he has mixed it with other varieties in his field while he was planning to use that seed for next year. Being a plant breeder, suggest a method in detail to the farmer, that how he can get the pure seed again from that mixed lot
In a certain plant, the seed traits are as follows:
Color: white (W) is dominant over yellow (w)Shape: disk (D) is dominant over sphere (d)Seed coat: thick (T) is dominant over thin (t)
a) If the parent plant is a triple heterozygote, what is its phenotype?
b)
Analyzing the phenotypes of the offspring, the alleles of the gametes were determined as:

- A) Describe the data you collect from the Purple 1 x Purple 2 cross. Predict the genotype of each of the parent plants. Explain your predictions using data from the experiment. B) Consider the offspring, the next generation (F1), from the Purple 1 x Purple 2 cross. What is the probability of a green stem plant? How do you know this? C) What is the probability in the F2 generation of a green stem offspring? Use a Punnett square(s) and quantitative data to explain your thinking. Upload your Punnett square(s).arrow_forwardTwo pure-breeding lines of petunia plants are crossed. Line 1 plants grow to a height of 54 cm, and Line 2 plants grow to a height of 18 cm. Petunia plant height is controlled by three genes, A, B and C. Line 1 has the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁, and line 2 has the genotype A2A2B₂B₂C₂C₂. Assume that genotype alone determines plant height under ideal growth conditions and that the alleles of the three genes are additive. If the F1 plants are self crossed, what is the expected proportion of F2 plants with the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁ 1/8 1/32 1/16 1/4 1/64arrow_forwardIn rice, plants homozygous for the recessive allele sd1 are relatively short in stature; heterozygotes are of normal height. Plants carrying one copy of a dominant allele, Xa4 (corresponding to a second gene located on a different chromosome), are resistant to bacterial blight. Note that both the sd1 and Xa4 alleles would be considered "mutant" alleles in this scenario. A farmer obtained two pureline plants (one is homozygous for the sd1 mutant and the other is homozygous for the Xa4 mutant) and crossed them. Assume both pureline plants have identical alleles at all other loci, and no other mutant alleles are present in these two plants, which of these statements is correct? O All the progeny will be susceptible to bacterial blight and will be short. O When a progeny plant from the cross goes through meiosis, gametes will either contain sd1 or Xa4 alleles, but never both. O When a progeny plant from the cross goes through meiosis, four possible types of gametes that may form, and the…arrow_forward

Re. Is dominlant to yellow fruit (). Image 1. Potato leaves (left) and regular leaves (right). 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. Complete a Punnett square to determine the expected F2 progeny on the basis of Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the alleles for one gene segregate independently of the alleles for other genes during gamete formation.arrow_forwardAssume that three loci, each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, C and c), determine the difference in height between two homozygous strains of a plant. These genes are additive and equal in their effects on plant height. One strain (aa bb cc) is 10 cm in height. The other strain (AA BB CC) is 22 cm in height. The two strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are interbred to produce F2 progeny. Give the phenotypes and the expected proportions of the F2 progeny.arrow_forward
