Evolutionary lineages

An evolutionary lineage is a series of populations of organisms that descend from a common ancestor. Each species in the lineage is the direct consequence of evolutionary change from a common ancestor. A phylogenetic tree is generally used to display lineages visually. Lineages are components of the phylogenetic tree of life. Molecular systematics procedures are widely used to predict lineages.

There are two genetically-determined traits that are seen in a species of salamander. The S-gene codes for spotting: SS or Ss = white spots; ss = no spots. The W-gene codes for skin texture: WW or Ww=wrinkly; ww = smooth. If a cross is done between SSWW and ssww parents, what genotype(s) would you expect to see in the offspring of this dihybrid cross? NOTE: Assume no recombination. O Ss, ss, WW. ww O SW, sw, Sw, sw O SsWw O SSWW, ssww
