Chapter 5, Problem 9P

Genes A, B, C, D, and E are linked on a chromosomeand occur in the order given. The test cross Ae/aE*ae/ae indicates the genes recombine with a frequency of 28% .

a. If 1000 progeny are produced by the test cross, determine the number of progeny in each outcome class.

b. Previous genetic linkage crosses have determined that recombination frequencies for these genes are 6% for genes A and B, 4% for genes B and C, 10% for genes C and D, and 11% for genes D and E. The sum of these frequenciesbetween genes A and E is 31% . Why does the recombination distance between these genes, determined by adding

In autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is  very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant  to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red  autotetraploid strain.   a. What is the genotype of the Fl1? b. Show the types of gametes the Fl's may be expected to form and derive the expected  proportion of each. Show your solution.  c. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if:  the Fl's are intercrossed? Show your solution.  the Fl's are crossed with red plants? Show your solution. d. If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions  of gametes would the Fl be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.

The F1’s are crossed with red plants d. If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions of gametes would the F1 be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.
n corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of the corn plants (i.e the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile corn plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male sterile lines sing the cardboard chips, simulate the crosses indicated below. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offsprings in each cross, and properly label the nucleus and the cytoplasm of each individual in the cross Legend male sterile cytoplasm Male fertile cytoplasm FF nucleus Ff nucleus ff nucleus A. Male sterile female x FF male Explain the phenotype of the offspring B. Male sterile female x Ff male Explain the phenotype of the offspring
