In cucumbers, dull fruit (D) is dominant over glossy fruit (d), orange fruit (R) is dominant over cream fruit (r), and bitter cotyledons (B) are dominant over non-bitter cotyledons (b). The three characters are encoded by genes located on different pairs of chromosomes. A plant homozygous for dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons is crossed with a plant that has glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2.
a. Give the phenotypes and their expected proportions in the F2.
b. An F1 plant is crossed with a plant that has glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons. Give the phenotypes and expected proportions among the progeny of this cross.
Homework Answers
The genotype of dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons = DDRRBB
The genotype of glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter = ddrrbb
In f1 generation, all the progeny will have DdRrBb genotype.
In the f2 generation number of phenotypes can be calculated by the probability method.
First, we calculate the probability for a monohybrid cross and then phenotypes fraction obtained by combining them
Dull fruit Dd x Dd
| D | d | |
| D | DD | Dd |
| d | Dd | dd |
Probability of the dull phenotype = 3/4
Probability of the glossy phenotype = 1/4
Orange fruit Rr x Rr
| R | r | |
| R | RR | Rr |
| r | Rr | rr |
Probability of the Orange fruit = 3/4
Probability of the Cream fruit = 1/4
Bitter fruit Bb x Bb
| B | b | |
| B | BB | Bb |
| b | Bb | bb |
probability of Bitter cotyledons = 3/4, probability of
nonbitter cotyledon = 1/4

17. In watermelons, bitter fruit (B) is dominant over sweet fruit (b), and yellow spots (S) are dominant over no spots (s). The genes for these two characteristics assort independently. A homozygous plant that has bitter fruit and yellow spots is crossed with a homozygous plant that has sweet fruit and no spots. The F1 are intercrossed to produce an F2. a. What are the phenotypic ratios in the F2? b. If an F1 plant is backcrossed with the bitter,...

This tutorial will take you step by step through the question. In cucumbers, dull fruit (D) is dominant to glossy fruit (d), and orange fruit (R) is dominant to cream-colored fruit (r). The gene that codes for dull versus glossy assorts independently from the gene that codes for orange versus cream-colored. A plant that has dull and orange fruits is crossed...

In a certain plant, a dominant allele for one gene, R, produces round fruit and the recessive allele, r, produces oblong fruit. A dominant allele of a second gene, Y, produces yellow flowers and the recessive allele, y, produces white flowers. The two genes are linked on chromosome IV. A plant ( ry / ry ) with normal chromosomes is crossed to a plant (R Y/R Y) homozygous for a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes IV and VIII. The presence of...

In cats, curled ears result from an allele (Cu) that is dominant over an allele (cu) for normal ears. Black color results from an independently assorting allele (G) that is dominant over an allele for gray (g). A gray cat homozygous for curled ears is mated with a homozygous black cat with normal ears. All the F1 cats are black and have curled ears. a. If two of the F1 cats mate, what phenotypes and proportions are expected in the...

2. Fruit color in eggplants is controlled by a single autosomal gene, R, with two alleles R and r. When a homozygous plant that produces purple fruit (RR) is crossed with a homozygous plant that produces white fruit (rr), all F1 offspring produce violet eggplants. When the F1 progeny are testcrossed, the F2 progeny produce 160 violet eggplants, and 154 white eggplants.
