Chapter 5, Problem 26PDQ

In a certain plant, fruit is either red or yellow, and fruit shape is either oval or long. Red and oval are the dominant traits. Two plants, both heterozygous for these traits, were testcrossed, with the following results.

Two genes in chromosome 7 of corn are identified by the recessive alleles gl (glossy), determining glossy leaves, and ra (ramosa), determining branching of ears. When a plant heterozygous for each of these alleles was crossed with a homozygous recessive plant, the progeny consisted of the following genotypes with the numbers of each indicated: Calculate the frequency of recombination (as a decimal) between these genes. Gl ra / gl ra Gl Ra/gl ra 98 7 gl Ra/gl ra gl ra / gl ra 91 4
The following results were obtained from a dihybrid cross between two pea plants:   315 plants with round seeds and yellow flowers 101 plants with wrinkled seeds and yellow flowers 108 plants with round seeds and white flowers 32 plants with wrinkled seeds and white flowers   Assume that round seeds and yellow flowers are dominant and both parent plants were heterozygous for both traits.
A variety of opium poppy with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 plants had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were then interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2 plants, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. What are the genotypes of the plants in the P (parental), F1, and F2 generations? How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? Note: You can use the symbols A and B to represent the two genes involved. (How do we know there are two?)
