Summary Introduction

To determine: Theeffect of sympatric and allopatric speciation on adaptive radiation.

Introduction: Evolution is the change in the phenotypic or genotypic characters of the species as a whole with passing generations; this can take place due to several internal and external factors.

Explanation of Solution

Adaptive radiation is an important concept in evolutionary biology. The adaptive radiation is one of the few processes that allow the divergence or convergence of two or more species. Adaptive radiation requires both allopatric and sympatric speciation along with adaptation to different habitats. Speciation mainly occurs allopatrically and leads to rising of species that colonize other islands producing multiple species per island.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The relationship between the sympatric speciation and character displacement.

Introduction: Evolution of organism results into various types of accumulations in the genes of an organism that enable an individual to adapt in the changing environment.

Explanation of Solution

Sympatric speciation also occurs during the course of multiple generation because of disruptive selection and can result in the population to contain individuals exhibiting two different phenotypes. The instantaneous sympatric speciation occurs when an individual born is reproductively isolated from all other members of its species. A mutation that would cause an individual to be different from other members of species result in pleiotropic effects and subsequently end in adaptive radiation.

Question #3: In the KeyGene paper, the authors state that it would be useful if pollen from an apomict would transmit apomixis-inducing genes to the female in the cross (assuming the pollen is viable). Assuming there was just one gene conferring gametophytic obligate apomixis, and that the two parents are inbreds, what would be the consequences of such a cross if: a) The apomixis was a dominant trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the parental cross. b) The apomixis was a recessive trait? Indicate the genotypes and phenotypes (apomict or non- apomict) of the parents, F1 and F2 generations. Remember to include the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios (or percentages) in the F1 and F2 generations, and to position the female first (left side) in the…
Question #5: Assume that two genes are identified that confer gametophytic facultative apomixis in soybean. The genes show independent assortment. Recessive alleles at both loci are required for the facultative apomixis. Facultative apomixis is triggered when the temperature at pollination is above 20 degrees C. At temperatures below 20 degrees C, all reproduction is sexual, independent of genotype. A facultative apomict male, capable of producing viable pollen, was crossed with a sexually reproducing female. Assuming the parents are completely inbred, what are the predicted phenotypic ratios (apomict: non-apomict) for the F1, F2, and DH (F1-derived) generations at each of the following temperatures*: a) 15°C? b) 25°C? *for full credit, show crosses and genotypes where appropriate. Remember to position the female first (left side) in the cross. Type your answer here:
