Summary Introduction

To explain:

With the help of a diagram that Krause and Blue moon are mother and son as well as brother and sister.

Introduction:

A mule is produced when a cross is conducted between a horse and a donkey; the progeny is always sterile. Female mule named Krause when mated with male donkey produced male foal named Blue moon. Both Blue moon and Krause had same father. Blue moon was much like his mother and inherited complete set of horse chromosome from mother.

b.

Summary Introduction

To explain:

Whether the offspring of fertile female mule inherit set of horse chromosomes from mother mule.

The shape of radishes may be long (SL/SL), oval (SL/SS), or round (SS/SS), and the color of radishes may be red (CR/CR), purple (CR/CW) or white (CW/CW).  If a long, red radish plant is crossed with a round, white plant, what will be the appearance of the F1 and F2 generations?
None
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…
