Question
In roses, purple flower color is determined by the dominant P allele, while pp
homozygotes are white. The presence of long stems is determined by the
dominant S allele, while ss homozygotes have short stems. Both mutations are
completely penetrant. A test cross was performed between a rose plant of
unknown genotype with a white flowered, short stemmed rose plant (pp ss) and
the following 200 progeny plants were obtained:
84 white flowers, long stems
16 purple flowers, long stems
82 purple flowers, short stems
18 white flowers, short stems
Select the statements below that are TRUE.
Select 2 correct answer(s)
The P and S genes independently assort during meiosis.
The map distance between P and S is 17 CM.
The genotype of the progeny plants with purple flowers and short stems is
PP ss.
The map distance between P and S is 83 CM.
The homologs in the plant with unknown genotype are p S and Ps.
The homologs in the plant with unknown genotype are PS and p s.
