Chapter 2, Problem 88P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The genetic explanation of the results that were obtained from the two different crosses.
Introduction: There are different cross based on the number of characters taken into consideration. The cross in which only a single character is taken is termed as a monohybrid cross, whereas the dihybrid cross is considered where two characters are taken into account.

Multiple crosses were made between true-breeding lines of black and yellow Labrador retrievers. All the F1 progeny were yellow. When these progeny were intercrossed, they produced an F2 consisting of 121 yellow, 9 black and 30 chocolate.
What epistatic ratio and what kind of epistasis is approximated in the F2?
Propose a biochemical pathway for coat color in Labrador retrievers based on the type of epistasis.
Correlate each genotype with the phenotype that would occur in your pathway. Also show the frequency of each genotype.

In an intra-species cross performed in mustard plants of two different species (Brassica juncea and Brassica oleracea), a tall plant (TT) was crossed with a dwarf (tt) variety in each of the two species. The members of the F1 generation were crossed to produce the F2 generation. Of the F2 plants, Brassica juncea had 60 tall and 20 dwarf plants, while Brassica oleracea had 100 tall and 20 dwarf plants. Use chi-square analysis to analyze these results.
In the fungus Neurospora, a strain that is auxotrophic for thiamine (mutant allele t) was crossed with a strain that isauxotrophic for methionine (mutant allele m). Linear asci were isolated and classified into the following groups: a. Determine the linkage relations of these two genes to their centromere(s) and to each other. Specify distances in map units. b. Draw a diagram to show the origin of the ascus type with only one single representative (second from right).

- Two groups of geneticists, in California and in Chile, begin work to develop a linkage map of the medfly. They both independently find that the loci for body color (B = black, b = gray) and eye shape (R = round, r = star) are linked 28 m.u. apart. They send strains to each other and perform crosses; a summary of all their findings is shown here:a. Provide a genetic hypothesis that explains the three sets of testcross results. b.
