a.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The conclusion for such a research results would lead to.

Introduction: Cytoplasmic male sterility is total or partial male sterility in plants as the result of specific nuclear and mitochondrial interactions.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The genotype and the phenotype of the F1.

Introduction: Male sterility is the failure of plants to produce functional anthers, pollen, or male gametes.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The results of the testcross and genotypes and phenotypes.

Introduction: In corn breeding, the cytoplasm that was used initially to provide the male sterility was the Texas or T cytoplasm.

d.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The result of a cross in which the male parent is

  1. (i) heterozygous at both restorer loci.
  2. (ii) homozygous dominant at one restorer locus and homozygous recessive at the other.
  3. (iii) heterozygous at one restorer locus and homozygous recessive at the other.
  4. (iv) heterozygous at one restorer locus and homozygous dominant at the other.

Introduction: Hybrid production requires a plant from which no viable male gametes are introduced, and this selective exclusion of viable male gametes can be accomplished via different paths.

If using animals in medical experiments could save human lives, is it ethical to do so? In your answer, apply at least one ethical theory in support of your position.
You aim to test the hypothesis that the Tbx4 and Tbx5 genes inhibit each other's expression during limb development. With access to chicken embryos and viruses capable of overexpressing Tbx4 and Tbx5, describe an experiment to investigate whether these genes suppress each other's expression in the limb buds. What results would you expect if they do repress each other? What results would you expect if they do not repress each other?
You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
