1.      In snapdragons, red flower color (CR) is incompletely dominant to white flower color (CW). The heterozygote has pink flowers. Normal broad leaves (LB) are incompletely dominant to narrow, grass-like leaves, (LN). The heterozygote has an intermediate leaf width. If a red-flowered, narrow-leaved snapdragon is crossed with a white-flowered broad-leaved one, what will be the phenotypes in the F1and F2generations, and what will be the proportions of the different classes?        (Draw a branching diagram to provide the answer)

In four-o-clock plants, red flower color (FR) is incompletely dominant over white flowers (FW) and the heterozygous individuals have pink flowers. a. If a red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant, what would be the genotypic and phenotypic frequencies of the F1? b.

In a certain species of flower, the red allele for flower color (R) is completely dominant to the pink allele (r). A completely recessive allele (d) at a second gene on a different chromosome allows pigment (color) to be actually deposited within flowers; the lack of pigment results in white flowers.

Flower color in buffalo clover is either white or some shade of pink to red. Pollen from a red individual was applied to white flowers in 1999. This seed was germinated in 2000 and four red plants were obtained in the progeny. These four red plants were allowed to self pollinate in summer 2000 to produce the next generation. Populations of progeny from each of the four plants were grown in the greenhouse in spring 2001 and the following data...

You are studying three linked genes in snapdragons. The flower color locus is in the center. There are 11.3 cM between the flower color locus and the plant height locus. There are 10.7 cM between the flower color locus and the leaf type locus. The coefficient of coincidence is 0.8. Pure-breeding tall, red-flowered plants with fuzzy leaves were crossed to pure-breeding dwarf, blue-flowered plants with smooth leaves. The F1 were testcrossed. Calculate the proportion of the testcross progeny that are...

In a flowering plant species, snapdragons, variation in flower color is determined by a single gene. RR genotype individuals are red, Rr genotype individuals are pink, and rr genotype individuals are white. In a cross between two heterozygous (Rr) individuals, the expected ratio of red:pink:white-flowered offsprings is 1:2:1. Biologists did two cross experiments, and ask whether the results differ significantly from the expected. Part 1: The first cross experiment ends up with 40 offsprings, including 10 red, 21 pink, and...
