Chapter 4, Problem 17PDQ
In rats, the following genotypes of two independently assorting autosomal genes determine coat color:
A third gene pair on a separate autosome determines whether or not any color will be produced. The CC and Cc genotypes allow color according to the expression of the A and B alleles. However, the cc genotype results in albino rats regardless of the A and B alleles present. Determine the F1
- (a) AAbbCC × aaBBcc
- (b) AaBBCC × AABbcc
- (c) AaBbCc × AaBbcc
- (d) AaBBCc × AaBBCc
- (e) AABbCc × AABbcc

Pigment in mouse fur is only produced when the C allele is present. Individuals of the cc genotype are white. If color is present, it may be determined by the A, a alleles. AA or Aa results in agouti color, while aa results in black coats. (a) What F1 and F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from a cross between AACC and aacc mice? (b) In three crosses between agouti females whose genotypes were unknown and males of the aacc genotype, the following phenotypic ratios were obtained: (1) 8 agouti (2) 9 agouti (3) 4 agouti 8 white 10 black 5 black 10 white What are the genotypes of these female parents?
In humans, four different blood types (A, B, AB, and O) are encoded by three alleles 1,
1, and i Individuals with both I and I alleles have blood type AB (red blood cells with
both A and B antigens). Two copies of the i allele are required for an individual to have
blood type O (red blood cells with no antigens).
Which of the following correctly indicates the relationship between the I and / alleles for the blood type gene?
Select one:
OA. I is dominant to /
OB. I is recessive to i
OC. I and I are co-dominant
OD. I and/exemplify incomplete dominance
In Drosophila, an X-linked recessive mutation, Xm causes miniature wings. List the F2 phenotypic ratios if:
a miniature-winged female is crossed with a normal male and
a miniature-winged male is crossed with a normal female.
What would the phenotypic ratio from (a) be if the miniature-winged gene were autosomal? Assume in all cases that the P1 individuals are true-breeding.

- In mice, the presence of AA alleles give rise to the agouti fur color, AAY gives rise to a yellow fur color, and AYAY is lethal, causing mice to die before birth. The B allele results in pigment formation and is dominant over the b allele. The bb genotype results in no pigment formation and gives an albino fur color irrespectively of the presence of the AA or AAY alleles. In the following cross between a yellow and agouti mice, what would be the expected proportion of agouti fur mice among the live offspring? AAY Bb X AA Bb 1/2 1/4 3/8 1/3 3/4arrow_forwardA mutant sex-linked trait called “notched” (N) is deadly in Drosophila when homozygous in females. Males who have a single N allele will also die. The heterozygous condition (Nn) causes small notches on the wing. The normal condition in both male and females is represented by the allele n. a) Indicate the phenotypes of the F1 generation from the following cross: XNXn x XnY b) Explain why dead females are never found in the F1 generation no matter which parents are crossed. c) Explain why the mating of female XNXn and a male XNy is unlikely.arrow_forwardIn dogs, dark coat color is dominant over albino, andshort hair is dominant over long hair.

- Pigment in mouse fur is only produced when the C allele is present. Individuals of the cc genotype are white. If color is present, it may be determined by the A, a AA or Aa results in agouti color, while aa results in black coats. What F1 and F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratios are obtained from a cross between AACC and aacc mice? (F2: intercross between F1 offspring) Explain briefly the pattern of inheritance in this problem set and how you determined the phenotypic ratios in the offspring.arrow_forwardA standard three-point mapping is conducted for recessive mutations in autosomal genes purple eye (pr), curved wing ( c) and black body (b). Their wild type alleles are also used for genetic mapping. An F1 Drosophila female heterozygous for purple eye (pr), curved wing (c) and black (b) is crossed to a triply homozygous mutant male. The observed numbers and phenotypes of the offspring are as follows: 360 pr c b 380 pr+ c+ b+ 104 pr c+ b 96 pr+ c b+ 30 pr c b+ 20 pr+ c+ b 6 pr c+ b+ 4 pr+ c b PROVIDE THE FOLLOWING: A) State the order of genes on this chromosome. B) Calculate map distances between the gene pairs: pr-c, pr-b, c-b. Show calculations, state the number of map units and which gene pairs they refer to.arrow_forwardMouse fur color is affected by TWO unlinked loci. GG or Gg mice are agouti. Mice with genotype gg are albino since all pigment production is blocked, regardless of the phenotype at the second locus. At the other locus, the F allele (agouti coat) is dominant to the f allele (black coat). How many black mice would result from a cross between two agouti mice of genotype GgFf?

- Multiple crosses were made between true-breeding lines of black and yellow Labrador retrievers. All the F1 progeny were yellow. When these progeny were intercrossed, they produced an F2 consisting of 121 yellow, 9 black and 30 chocolate. What epistatic ratio and what kind of epistasis is approximated in the F2? Propose a biochemical pathway for coat color in Labrador retrievers based on the type of epistasis. Correlate each genotype with the phenotype that would occur in your pathway. Also show the frequency of each genotype.

- Three autosomal recessive mutations in yeast, all producing the same phenotype (m1, m2, and m3), are subjected to complementation analysis. Of the results shown below, which, if any, are alleles of one another? Predict the results of the cross that is not shown—that is, m2 * m3.

Remember, to produce the F2 generation you want to cross Heterozygotes from the F1. d) Genes 1 and 2 exhibit Epistasis (9:6:1) and Gene 3 is an Autosomal Dominant. In the P generation, the Male is Homozygous Recessive for the Genes showing Epistasis. Use E1, E2 and E3 to represent the Phenotypes shown by Epistasis.
