Textbook Question
Chapter 27, Problem 16CONQ
Many beautiful varieties of roses have been produced, particularly in the last few decades. These newer varieties often have very striking and showy flowers, making them desirable as horticultural specimens. However, breeders and novices alike have noticed that some of these newer varieties are not very fragrant compared with the older, more traditional varieties. From a genetic point of view, suggest an explanation why some of these newer varieties with superb flowers are not as fragrant.

What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar? Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?arrow_forward
