Mendelian ratios are modified in crosses involving autotetraploids.Assume that one plant expresses the dominant trait greenseeds and is homozygous (WWWW). This plant is crossed to onewith white seeds that is also homozygous (wwww). If only onedominant allele is sufficient to produce green seeds, predict theF1 and F2 results of such a cross. Assume that synapsis betweenchromosome pairs is random during meiosis.
In autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis L.), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain.
Each of the F1 GGgg plants would obtain 12 gametes which are 2GG, 8Gg, and 2g. How were these obtained?
Three autosomal genes are linked along the same chromosome.The distance between gene A and B is 7 mu, the distance betweenB and C is 11 mu, and the distance between A and C is 4 mu. Anindividual that is AA bb CC was crossed to an individual that is aaBB cc to produce heterozygous F1 offspring. The F1 offspring werethen crossed to homozygous aa bb cc individuals to produce F2offspring.If we assume that no double crossovers occur, what percentageof F2 offspring is likely to be homozygous for all three genes?

- Summer squash exist in long, spherical, or disk shapes. When atrue-breeding long-shaped strain was crossed to a true-breedingdisk-shaped strain, all of the F1 offspring were disk-shaped. Whenthe F1 offspring were allowed to self-fertilize, the F2 generationconsisted of a ratio of 9 disk-shaped to 6 round-shaped to 1 longshaped. Assuming the shape of summer squash is governed by twodifferent genes, with each gene existing in two alleles, propose amechanism to account for this 9:6:1 ratioarrow_forwardIn a cross involving independently assorting loci, the cross BBYY x bbyy (assume "B" and "Y" are dominant to "b" and "y," respectively) will yield all dihybrid offspring. When those offpspring are crossed, the result is usually a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio. But what if the locus "B" and "Y" did not sort independently (i.e., they were linked, at least partially)? It would mean "BY" and "by" are now more likely. How would this specifically affect the expected 9:3:3:1 ratio? To be more clear, which one of these numbers in the ratio (9, 3, 3, and/or 1) would be expected to decrease?
