In stems of corn seedlings purple color (from an anthocyanin) is determined by C, while the c allele gives colorless (white.) An unlinked gene has an allele K, which prevents the expression of C, while the k allele does not block C. If a pure breeding colored variety is crossed with a white strain of genotype ccKK:

a. What must be the genotype of the pure breeding colored variety?

b. Why must we specify the genotype of the white strain?

c. What ratios of phenotypes would you see in the F1 and F2 progeny?

The F2 obtained by selfing the F1 segregated as follows: Red Purple 80222 White 98 Two models (A and B) were suggested to account for these results:- A) Root colour is controlled by a single gene with two alleles showing incomplete dominance B) Root colour is controlled by two unlinked genes showing (recessive) epistasis....

    II. MONOHYBRID PROBLEMS WITH INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE 8. Petunia flower color is governed by two alleles, but neither allele is truly dominant over the other. Petunias with the genotype R R are red-flowered, those that are heterozygous (R W ) are pink, while those with the (WW ) genotype have white flowers. This is an example of incomplete dominance. a. If a white-flowered plant is crossed with a red-flowered plant, what is the genotypic ratio of the F1? __________________________________________________________ b. What...

    6. In Cross 1, a yellow eyed, long wing fruit fly from a pure breeding strain is mated to a red eye, short wing fruit fly from a pure breeding strain. All of their offspring (F1) had red eyes and long wings. In Cross 2, one of the F1 offspring is mated to a fly with yellow eyes and short wings, and this cross gave the following F2 population: 194 flies with long wings and red eyes, 796 flies with...
