- This exercise primarily addresses o MLO 1: Correctly assign and interpret allele symbols according to the conventions of the fruit fly research community. o MLO 2: Correctly assign genotypes and phenotypes to parents and offspring in genetic crosses given a mode of inheritance. Autosomal Recessive Inheritance We learned in the Linkage Mapping lab module the conventions for representing alleles in fruit flies. Recall that we use one to three letters, and the case (upper or lower) is determined by whether the mutant allele is recessive or dominant. Additionally, we add a "+" as a superscript to indicate the wild-type ("normal") allele. For example, if a new mutant phenotype is recessive, we can represent the recessive allele as m. Then the wild-type allele is mt, and m+ > m. Based on the rule of dominance, we can predict phenotypes based on genotypes: mm Wild type Wild type Mutant m+m mmarrow_forwardselect whcih ic correct When 2 wildtype alleles are on the same parental chromosome, this is known as [Combined or Coupling or dispersed or heterozygous or Repulsion] . In sharp contrast [Combined or Coupling or dispersed or heterozygous or Repulsion] is when 1 wildtype allele and 1 mutant allele are on the same parental chromosomearrow_forwardActivity E: Predicting the outcome of a dihybrid cross The resulting phenotypic ratios in the F₂ generation of a dihybrid cross (2 traits) can be quite different than those observed from a monohybrid cross, but the process is essentially the same. First, you list all possible gametes each parent and subsequent parents can produce. Second, you then assign the gametes to a Punnett square and fill it in. Finally, you count the progeny and determine the number of progeny in each phenotypic category. Remember, when determining the types of gametes possible, each gamete must have one member of each homologous pair of chromosomes. This means there needs to be one copy of every gene. For example, if you are considering a T gene (ability to taste PTC) and an F gene (let's say earwax texture- wet earwax is dominant and dry earwax is recessive), each gamete must have one allele for the T gene (either T or t) and one allele for the F gene (either For f).arrow_forward

For example, Arlene "has" the trait, she displays the phenotype in question. For example, if we were following the inheritance pattern of a widow's peak, Arlene has a widow's peak (that is NOT the trait here, just an example). Unshaded individuals (blank circles and squares) do not manifest the trait in question, but their specific genotype is unknown - they could be heterozygous, homozygous dominant, or homozygous recessive.
