The recessive traits in garden pea plants are as follows: yellow pods (g) are recessive to green pods (G); bluish-green seedlings (s) are recessive to green seedlings (S); creeper (p) (a plant that cannot stand up) is recessive to normal (P). A homozygous plant with green pods, green seedlings and normal stature was crossed to a creeper with yellow pods and bluish-green seedlings. The F1 plants were then crossed to creepers with yellow pods and bluish-green seedlings. The following results were obtained:

2059 green pods, green seedlings, normal

151 green pods, green seedlings, creeper

281 green pods, bluish-green seedlings, normal

   15 green pods, bluish-green seedlings, creeper

2041 yellow pods, bluish-green seedlings, creeper

157 yellow pods, bluish-green seedlings, normal

282 yellow pods, green seedlings, creeper

      11 yellow pods, green seedlings, normal

A. Complete a Punnett square representing the test cross discussed above

B. Determine the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratio of the test-cross above.

C. Calculate the genetic distances among the three genes?

D. Construct the genetic map describing the map distances and the order of the genes.

E. Calculate the expected number of double cross-overs.

F. Calculate the coefficient of coincidence and provide an answer

G. Calculate the Interference. What does this number mean?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Ans)

B) expected genotypic and phenotypic ratio=1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1

C)order of genes=sgp or pgs

genetic distance Between s and g gene=12cM

Genetic distance between g and p=6.7cM

Distance between s and p=18.7cM

Ansd)

Anse)expected double cross over freq=0.12x0.067=0.00804

Ansf) C=0.65

Ansg) I=0.35

Interference is less so more cross over.

Three linked traits in garden pea plants are each controlled by two alleles. Yellow pods are recessive to green pods, bluish green seedlings are recessive to green seedlings, and creeper is recessive to normal. A plant heterozygous for all three traits was crossed to a creeper plant with yellow pods and bluish green seedlings. The following F2 results were obtained: 171 green pods, bluish green seedlings, creeper 307 yellow pods, green seedlings, creeper 13 green pods, green seedlings, normal 2067...

In tomatoes, pear shape, yellow color, and terminal flower position are recessive traits produced by alleles f, r, and t, respectively. The dominant phenotypes for each trait – full shape, red color, and axial flower position- are the product of dominant alleles F, R, and T. A farmer has two pure breeding tomato lines. One is full, yellow, terminal, and the other is pear, red, and axial. Design a breeding experiment (a series of crosses) that will produce a line...
