Chapter 20, Problem 39P

New allopolyploid plant species can arise by hybridization between two species. If hybridization occurs between a diploid plant species with 2n = 14 and a second diploid species with 2n = 22 , the new allopolyploid would have 36 chromosomes.

a. Is it likely that sexual reproduction between the allopolyploid species and either of its diploid ancestors would yield fertile progeny? Why or why not?

b. What type of isolation mechanism is most likely to prevent hybridization between the allopolyploid and the diploid species?

c. What pattern of speciation is illustrated by the development of the allopolyploid species?

You inject morpholino oligonucleotides that inhibit the translation of follistatin, chordin, and noggin (FCN) at the 1 cell stage of a frog embryo. What is the effect on neurulation in the resulting embryo? Propose an experiment that would rescue an embryo injected with FCN morpholinos.
