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 of tomato that is pure breeding for pear shape, yellow color, and axial flower position. Be sure to indicate both phenotypes and genotypes and their ratios for each step of your design, but you need only give the information for the desired or expected individuals in each generation.

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...

The yellow mutation is an X-linked recessive mutation in Drosophila, causing yellow body color. A yellow-bodied female is crossed to a male with wild type body color to produce F1 progeny. The F1 female progeny and F1 male progeny are then crossed to each other to produce F2 progeny. Among the F2 females A. all will be yellow body color. B. 3/4 will be yellow body color. C. 1/2 will be yellow body color. D. 1/4 will be yellow body...

In Mendel's pea plants, the genes that code for flower color, seed color and seed shape are on 3 different chromosomes. For flower color, purple is dominant over white, yellow seeds are dominant over green and round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds. If you crossed two parents who were heterozygous for all 3 genes, how many purple flowered, round and yellow seeded plants would you expect in the offspring generation? correct answer is 27/64 please show work thank you

Flower color in a diploid plant is governed by a single gene with 2 alleles (CR and CW). Inheritance of flower color follows a pattern of simple Mendelian genetics with dominance. Scoring of 1850 plants gives the following data: Flower Color                 Genotype    Number Red    CRCR   467 Red                                     CRCW      946 White                                  CWCW      437 a) The allelic frequency of CR is [A] (enter your answer as a decimal rounded to three significant figures after the decimal, in the form '0.xyz';...

In Drosophila the recessive alleles for white eyes is X-linked (normal eye color is red) and the recessive allele for vestigial wings is autosomal. A female heterozygous for both of these traits is crossed with a white-eyed vestigial male. What proportion of the FEMALE progeny will be white-eyed with vestigial wings.? (a) 100 %    (b) 75 %       (c) 50 %     (d) 25 %     (e) 0 %

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...
