In an autotetraploid Chinese primrose (Primula sinensis), the gene controlling stigma color is very near the centromere of the chromosome carrying it. The allele G for green stigma is dominant to g for red stigmas. A homozygous green autotetraploid strain is crossed with a homozygous red autotetraploid strain. a. What is the genotype of the F1? b. Show the types of gametes the F1’s may be expected to form and derive the expected proportion of each. c. What phenotypic ratio of green to red is expected if: 1. The F1’s are intercrossed? 2. The F1’s are crossed with red plants d. If the G locus were 50 or more map units from the centromere, what types and proportions of gametes would the F1 be expected to produce? Derive the expected F2 phenotypic ratio.

Diagram the genotypes of this cross, starting with the parentalgeneration and ending with the F2 generation.B. What are the predicted phenotypic ratios of the F2 generation?C. Let’s suppose the following data were obtained for the F2 generation:114 curved wings, ebony body105 curved wings, gray body 111 straight wings, gray body114 straight wings, ebony bodyConduct a chi square analysis to determine if the experimental dataare consistent with the expected outcome based on Mendel’s laws.
Fruit flies are very useful model organisms that have been used to study genetics. One mutant recessive trait in fruit flies is called "eyeless" because it causes flies to have no eyes.
