In pea plants yellow seed color, (GG) and round seed shape (WW) seeds are dominant traits, while green color or (gg) wrinkled shape (ww) seeds are recessive traits. You cross pure breeding plant with yellow wrinkled seeds to a pure breeding plant with green round seeds to generate F1s. When you perform a reciprocal cross you get the same results. 9) You take an F1 male and an F1 female to generate F2 offspring. You take an F2 male with round and yellow seeds and mate them with an F2 female that has round green seeds. If these F2s produce 108 offspring, how many would be predicted to be green and wrinkled?

Question
In pea plants yellow seed color, (GG) and round seed shape (WW) seeds are dominant traits, while
green color or (gg) wrinkled shape (ww) seeds are recessive traits. You cross a pure breeding plant
with yellow wrinkled seeds to a pure breeding plant with green round seeds to generate F1s. When
you perform a reciprocal cross you get the same results.
9) You take an F1 male and an F1 female to generate F2 offspring. You take an F2 male with round
and yellow seeds and mate them with an F2 female that has round green seeds. If these F2s
produce 108 offspring, how many would be predicted to be green and wrinkled?
a) 27
b) 3
c) 4
d) 7
e) 12

Expert Solution
Step 1: Explain the cross

The allele G (dominant) is responsible for yellow phenotype and the allele g (recessive) is responsible for green phenotype.

The allele W (dominant) is responsible for round phenotype and the allele w (recessive) is responsible for wrinkled phenotype.

A cross is performed between true breeding yellow, wrinkled (GGww) and a true breeding green, round (ggWW) plants.
