Problem 6 Short hair in rabbits is governed by a dominant gene (L) and long hair by its recessive allele (1). Black hair results from the action of the dominant genotype (B_) and brown hair from the recessive genotype (bb). a. Construct a Punnet square representing a cross between a dihybrid short, black, and homozygous short, brown rabbits. What genotypic and phenotypic ratios are expected among their progeny? b. Determine the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios in progeny from the cross LLBB x Llbb. c. From crosses between LIBb and LIBB, c.l What is the expected phenotypic ratio among the progenies? c.2 What progeny of the Fi genotypes breed true (i.c., what percentage is of homozygous genotypes)? c.3 What percentage of the Fi genotypes is heterozygous for only one pair of genes? c.4 What percentage of the Fi genotypes is heterozygous at both loci?
