- A homozygous variety of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum Laciniatum) with lacerate leaves was crossed with another homozygous variety with normal leaves. All the F₁ had lacerate leaves (jagged-edged leaves). Two F₁ plants were crossed to produce the F2. Of the F2, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? two genes, with a dominant allele at both loci two genes, where one allele at a single locus is recessive lethal one gene, with codominant alleles at a single locus two genes, with a dominant allele at either or both loci Give genotypes for all the plants in the P, F₁, and F2 generations. Some generations will have more than one genotype. P F₁ F₂ (lacerate) F₂ (normal) aabb A_B_ Answer Bank aaB AaBb A_bb AABBTwo pure-breeding lines of petunia plants are crossed. Line 1 plants grow to a height of 54 cm, and Line 2 plants grow to a height of 18 cm. Petunia plant height is controlled by three genes, A, B and C. Line 1 has the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁, and line 2 has the genotype A2A2B₂B₂C₂C₂. Assume that genotype alone determines plant height under ideal growth conditions and that the alleles of the three genes are additive. If the F1 plants are self crossed, what is the expected proportion of F2 plants with the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁ 1/8 1/32 1/16 1/4 1/64A variety of opium poppy with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 plants had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were then interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2 plants, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. What are the genotypes of the plants in the P (parental), F1, and F2 generations? How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? Note: You can use the symbols A and B to represent the two genes involved. (How do we know there are two?)
- A variety of opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) with lacerate leaves was crossed with a variety that has normal leaves. All the F1 had lacerate leaves. Two F1 plants were interbred to produce the F2. Of the F2, 249 had lacerate leaves and 16 had normal leaves. Give genotypes for all the plants in the P, F1, and F2 generations. Explain how lacerate leaves are determined in the opium poppy.A strain of plants has a mean height of 24 cmcm. A second strain of the same species from a different geographical region also has a mean height of 24 cmcm. When plants from the two strains are crossed together, the F1F1 plants are the same height as the parent plants. However, the F2F2 generation shows a wide range of heights; the majority are like the P1P1 and F1F1 plants, but approximately 4 of 1000 are only 12 cmcm high, and about 4 of 1000 are 36 cmcm high. How many gene pairs are involved? Express your answer as an integer.In the Roselle plant, the dominant allele of gene 'A' codes for a pink flower and the recessive form codes for yellow flowers, while the dominant form of gene 'B' codes for serrated leaves, while the recessive form codes for smooth leaves. If the genes are trans linked, what are the expected genotypes and phenotypes and the respective ratios when plants heterozygous for both genes are test crossed?

- A pure breeding strain of squash that produced disk-shaped fruits was crossed with a pure- breeding strain having long fruits. The first filial generation had disk fruits, but the second filial generation showed a new phenotype, sphere, and was composed of the following proportions: disk 270, sphere 178, long 32. Propose an explanation for these results, and show the genotypes of P, First filial generation and second filial generation.In the garden pea, orange pods (p) are recessive to green pods (P), and sensitivity to pea mosaic virus (mo) is recessive to resistance to the virus (Mo). A plant with orange pods and sensitivity to the virus was crossed to a true-breeding plant with green pods and resistance to the virus. The F1plants were then testcrossed to plants with orange pods and sensitivity to the virus. The following results were obtained:160 orange pods, virus-sensitive; 165 green pods, virus-resistant;36 orange pods, virus-resistant; 39 green pods, virus-sensitive Question: Conduct a chi square analysis to see if these genes are linked.Two true-breeding varieties of maize, one 11 cm high and the other 47 cm high were crossed and the resultant F1 hybrids were then crossed to generate the F2 . In the F2 there were a total of 13,923 plants with a continuous variation in heights between the two extremes and with only 3 plants as large as 47 cm high and 5 plants of 11 cm high. What would be the size and genotype of the F1 from a cross between a true-breeding 11 cm plant and a true-breeding 47 cm plant?
