Make sure that you show a. the breeding pedigree. b. the genotype of each animal represented. c. how many eggs to hatch in each cross, and why this number. d. why your scheme is the fastest and the most convenient
. Consider the genotypes of two lines of chickens: the
pure-line mottled Honduran is i/i ; D/D ; M/M ; W/W, and
the pure-line leghorn is I/I ; d/d ; m/m ; w/w, where
I = white feathers, i = colored feathers
D = duplex comb, d = simplex comb
M = bearded, m = beardless
W = white skin, w = yellow skin
These four genes assort independently. Starting with
these two pure lines, what is the fastest and most
convenient way of generating a pure line that has colored
feathers, has a simplex comb, is beardless, and has yellow
skin? Make sure that you show
a. the breeding pedigree.
b. the genotype of each animal represented.
c. how many eggs to hatch in each cross, and why this
number.
d. why your scheme is the fastest and the most
convenient
