Document Summary

One parent has red, axial flowers and the other has white, terminal flowers; all f1 individuals have red, axial flowers. The genes for flower color and location assort independently. Yybb, yybb, or yybb is green; yybb or yybb is blue; yybb or yybb is yellow; and yybb is white. A blue budgie is crossed with a white budgie. Which of the following results is not possible: green offspring only, yellow offspring only, blue offspring only, blue and white offspring, a and b. In a particular plant, leaf color is controlled by gene locus d. plants with at least one allele d have dark green leaves, and plants with the homozygous recessive dd genotype have light green leaves. A true-breeding dark-leaved plant is crossed with a light-leaved one, and the f1 offspring is allowed to self-pollinate. The predicted outcome of the f2 is diagrammed in the.

Problem A. You cross two homozygous parents: RRYY (round yellow) and rryy (wrinkled green) to produce an F1 generation. Round seeds are dominant, yellow seeds are dominant. You cross two F1s to produce the F2 generation. In the F2 generation, you find an individual with round yellow seeds. You do a testcross to find out the genotype of this âmysteryâ dominant/dominant phenotype. In the offspring of the cross, you find 1?2 have round yellow seeds and 1?2 have wrinkled yellow seeds.

1. Based on these data what was the genotype of the mystery F2?

Problem B. You carry out a dihybrid cross between a red-flowered rose with long pollen grains (A1A1 LL) and a white-flowered rose with round pollen (A2A2 l l). The flower color gene (A) shows incomplete dominance, and long pollen is completely dominant to round pollen. The genes for these traits are on different chromosomes so assort independently

2. What would be the phenotypes of the F1 generation?

3. What fraction of the F2 generation is expected to have red flowers and long pollen? (As always when traits are independent, what rule can you apply to save time?)

Problem D. In the example of epistasis presented in class, the agouti allele in mice (A) codes for striped hairs and is dominant to the allele for all black hairs (a). A loss-of-function allele for the pigment gene (b) produces no pigment and is recessive to the normal, dominant allele (B). The recessive allele at b masks the effect of the A gene. A dihybrid cross of AABB and aabb is carried out.

5. Name all of the genotypes in the F2 generation that can produce an albino (no pigment) phenotype.

Problem E. A cross is made between homozygous fruit flies that differ for eye color (the st gene) and

body color (the e gene). The F1 double heterozygote is shown below using chromosome notation.

st+ e

--------------------------------------

st e+

st = the recessive allele for scarlet eyes; st+ = the dominant wildtype allele for red eyes e = the recessive allele for ebony body; e+ is the dominant wildtype allele for gray body

6. Are the chromosomes shown in the genotype above in cis or trans configuration?

7. Based on this notation, what were the genotypes and phenotypes of the two parents of the F1? (Think carefully here...)

8. With what phenotype would you cross this F1 to measure recombination frequency?

1. A person is described as a carrier for a particular genetic disease. What does this tell you about their genotype?

2. For any given gene, the principle of independent segregation predicts that each gamete produced as a result of meiosis will contain ____________________

3. A pair of alleles is said to be heterozygous when:

4. In a diploid species, cells can have up to ___ alleles of a particular gene.

5. In a cross between a homozygous dominant parent and a homozygous recessive parent, the number of phenotypic classes observed in the offspring is ______

6. For a person of genotype Xx, the genotype of their gametes may be ______________

7. In a "test cross", an individual of unknown genotype is crossed with a ___ individual to determine the unknown genotype.

8. An albino woman has a child with a phenotypically normal man with no family history of albinism (which is a rare recessive disorder). What percentage of their children are likely to be albino?

9. An individual with the dominant phenotype, but an unknown genotype, is test-crossed, and all of the offspring exhibit the dominant phenotype. The genotype of the unknown individual is ______________

10. If two heterozygous individuals for a recessive disease (carriers) have a child, what is the chance that their child will develop the disease?

11. In a monohybrid cross between two true-breeding parents that both exhibit the dominant phenotype, ___ percent of the offspring will exhibit the recessive phenotype.

12. In a particular type of tomato plant, red fruit is dominant over yellow fruit, and dwarf height is a recessive trait. If two heterozygous plants were crossed, what proportion of the offspring would show the dominant phenotype?

13. In a cross between a BbRr individual and a BBRR one, what do the following represent: BR, Br, bR, br?

14. In humans, the gene that determines whether an embryo develops as a male or a female is carried on _____________

A strong understanding of the difference between gene and allele is needed now. We covered allele interactions in the lesson before this one. Allele interactions deal with a single gene and its alleles. Alleles, versions of a gene, can interact when placed together in a heterozygote.

We are now looking at two genes and how they interact. To more easily understand how two genes interact, we will only be considering the normal alleles and null alleles of both genes. Normal alleles will be dominant, null alleles will be recessive. In addition, the two genes are UNLINKED. The various interactions are made evident in standard F2 generations: Two purebred parents are crossed, a dihybrid F1 is formed, the dihybrid F1 is selfed, and F2 generation is examined. One must remember, the progeny of dihybrid selfs are always in a fixed genotype distribution: 9 A _ B_ : 3 A _ bb : 3: aa B _ : 1 aa bb. BUT, with genes interacting the phenotypic ratios are changed.

Please focus on how genes interact. You do not need to know specific pathways or organisms.

Answer the following questions.

2. There is a hypothetical plant called rat-ear. Red and pink varieties flourish in Hawaii and Long Island, NY. All the red and pink varieties can be bred true. Surprisingly, when the Hawaiian pink is bred with the Long Island pink, all the resulting progeny are red. When these red progeny are selfed the next generation has 333 red flowered and 259 pink flowered plants. The breeders breathe a sigh of relief. What do the breeders understand about the petal pigmentation of rat-ear plants?
