A cross was made between a plant that has blue flowers and purpleseeds and a plant with white flowers and green seeds. The F1 generationwas then allowed to self-fertilize. The following data were obtained:F1 generation: All offspring have blue flowers with purple seeds.F2 generation: 208 blue flowers, purple seeds; 13 blue flowers,green seeds; 19 white flowers, purple seeds; and 60 white flowers,green seeds. Total = 300 offspring.Start with the hypothesis that blue flowers and purple seeds aredominant traits and that the two genes assort independently.Calculate a chi square value. What does this value mean withregard to your hypothesis? If you decide to reject your hypothesis,which aspect of the hypothesis do you think is incorrect (i.e., blueflowers and purple seeds are dominant traits, or the idea that thetwo genes assort independently)?

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
