A researcher has selfed an autotetraploid plant with the genotype D/D/d/d, and in the resulting progeny she observes a 35:1 phenotypic ratio. What can she conclude from this observation?
The progeny from this cross do not demonstrate a standard Mendelian phenotypic ratio. In the 35:1 phenotypic ratio, the 1 represents the phenotype of the d/d/d/d progeny. During meiosis in the D/D/d/d parent plant, it is likely that only bivalents, no quadrivalents or trivalents, formed. It is likely that in this plant species, gametes associate with one another randomly. All of the answers are correct.
