Question

. A corn geneticist has three pure lines of genotypes
a/a ; B/B ; C/C, A/A ; b/b ; C/C, and A/A ; B/B ; c/c. All
the phenotypes determined by a, b, and c will increase
the market value of the corn; so, naturally, he wants
to combine them all in one pure line of genotype
a/a ; b/b ; c/c.
a. Outline an effective crossing program that can be
used to obtain the a/a ; b/b ; c/c pure line.
b. At each stage, state exactly which phenotypes will be
selected and give their expected frequencies.
c. Is there more than one way to obtain the desired
genotype? Which is the best way?Assume independent assortment of the three gene pairs.
(Note: Corn will self or cross-pollinate easily.
