Question
In the rat, the pattern of coat color is affected by a gene with two alleles. PH is the allele for hooded, in
which the animal is mostly white with color restricted to the shoulders and neck. P+ is the normal solid
body color allele. These two alleles exhibit incomplete dominance, so that heterozygotes have white
bellies only.
A true-breeding solid strain is crossed with a true-breeding hooded strain, to produce an F₁ generation
that is all white belly. The F₁ generation rats are mated with each other to produce 800 F₂ offspring.
Below is a table that gives the observed number of each phenotype in the F2 and also gives you the
expected number.
