Albino rabbits (lacking pigment) are homozygous forthe recessive c allele (C allows pigment formation).Rabbits homozygous for the recessive b allele makebrown pigment, while those with at least one copy ofB make black pigment. True-breeding brown rabbitswere crossed to albinos, which were also BB. F1 rabbits, which were all black, were crossed to the doublerecessive (bb cc). The progeny obtained were 34black, 66 brown, and 100 albino.a. What phenotypic proportions would have beenexpected if the b and c loci were unlinked?b. How far apart are the two loci?
Manx cats have no tail. This is caused by a dominantmutation M, which is embryo lethal when homozygous. An unlinked gene B controls the color of the fur onthe cat's tail. The dominant B allele produces black fur on tails, while the recessive allele b produceswhite fur on tails. A Manx cat that is B/B is crossed to a white-tailed cat. Half of the F1 progeny hadthe Manx phenotype and the other half had normal, black tails.The F1 cats with the Manx phenotype were crossed to each other, producing F2 cats. What is the ratioof the following phenotypes in the F2

A wild-type fruit fly (heterozygous for gray body color andred eyes) is mated with a black fruit fly with purple eyes. Theoffspring are wild-type, 721; black purple, 751; gray purple, 49;black red, 45. What is the recombination frequency betweenthese genes for body color and eye color? Using informationfrom problem 3, what fruit flies (genotypes and phenotypes)would you mate to determine the order of the body color, wingsize, and eye color genes on the chromosome?
Labrador retrievers may be black, brown, or golden in color (seethe chapter opening photograph on p. 53). Although each colormay breed true, many different outcomes occur if numerous littersare examined from a variety of matings, where the parentsare not necessarily true-breeding. The following results showsome of the possibilities. Propose a mode of inheritance that isconsistent with these data, and indicate the corresponding genotypesof the parents in each mating. Indicate as well the genotypesof dogs that breed true for each color.(a) black * brown ¡ all black(b) black * brown ¡ 1/2 black1/2 brown(c) black * brown ¡ 3/4 black1/4 golden(d) black * golden ¡ all black(e) black * golden ¡ 4/8 golden3/8 black1/8 brown(f) black * golden ¡ 2/4 golden1/4 black1/4 brown(g) brown * brown ¡ 3/4 brown1/4 golden(h) black * black ¡ 9/16 black4/16 golden3/16 brown
The production of eye-color pigment in Drosophila requires the dominant allele A. The dominant allele P of asecond independent gene turns the pigment to purple,but its recessive allele leaves it red. A fly producing nopigment has white eyes. Two pure lines were crossedwith the following results:P red-eyed female white-eyed maleF1 purple-eyed femalesred-eyed malesF1 F1purple eyed 38red eyed 38white eyed 28F both males and females: 2Explain this mode of inheritance, and show the genotypesof the parents, the F1, and the F2.
Snapdragons occur in nature as either green- or yellow-leaved plants. Suppose that a gardener crosses two yellow-leaved snapdragons, and one-third of the offspring have green leaves while two-thirds of the offspring have yellow leaves. What is the most likely explanation for this outcome? The allele causing yellow leaves is a recessive epistatic allele O The allele causing yellow leaves is carried in the chloroplast genome O The allele causing yellow leaves is a dominant lethal allele The allele causing yellow leaves is a recessive lethal allele
. In mice, the dominant allele Gs of the X-linked geneGreasy produces shiny fur, while the recessive wildtype Gs+ allele determines normal fur. The dominantallele Bhd of the X-linked Broadhead gene causesskeletal abnormalities including broad heads andsnouts, while the recessive wild-type Bhd+ alleleyields normal skeletons. Female mice heterozygousfor the two alleles of both genes were mated withwild-type males. Among 100 male progeny of thiscross, 49 had shiny fur, 48 had skeletal abnormalities,2 had shiny fur and skeletal abnormalities, and 1 waswild type.a. Diagram the cross described and calculate thedistance between the two genes.b. What would have been the results if you hadcounted 100 female progeny of the cross?
. In 1919, Calvin Bridges began studying an X-linkedrecessive mutation causing eosin-colored eyes inDrosophila. Within an otherwise true-breedingculture of eosin-eyed flies, he noticed rare variantsthat had much lighter cream-colored eyes. By intercrossing these variants, he was able to make a truebreeding cream-eyed stock. Bridges now crossedmales from this cream-eyed stock with true-breedingwild-type females. All the F1 progeny had red (wildtype) eyes. When F1 flies were intercrossed, the F2progeny were 104 females with red eyes, 52 maleswith red eyes, 44 males with eosin eyes, and14 males with cream eyes. Assume that thesenumbers represent an 8:4:3:1 ratio.a. Formulate a hypothesis to explain the F1 and F2results, assigning phenotypes to all possiblegenotypes.b. What do you predict in the F1 and F2 generations if the parental cross is between truebreeding eosin-eyed males and true-breedingcream-eyed females?c. What do you predict in the F1 and F2 generationsif the parental cross is…
A mouse from a true-breeding population with normal gait was crossed to a mouse displaying an oddgait called dancing. The F1 animals all showednormal gait.a. If dancing is caused by homozygosity for the recessive allele of a single gene, what proportion ofthe F2 mice should be dancers?b. If mice must be homozygous for recessive allelesof each of two different genes to have the dancing phenotype, what proportion of the F2 shouldbe dancers if the two genes are unlinked?(Assume that all the mice in the populationwith normal gait were homozygous fordominant alleles.)c. When the F2 mice were obtained, 42 normal and8 dancers were seen. Use the chi-square test todetermine if these results better fit the one-genemodel from part (a) or the two-gene model frompart (b).
In Drosophila, an allele causing vestigial wings is 12.5 mu awayfrom another allele that causes purple eyes. A third gene that affectsbody color has an allele that causes black body color. Thisthird gene is 18.5 mu away from the vestigial wings allele and 6mu away from the allele causing purple eyes. The alleles causingvestigial wings, purple eyes, and black body are all recessive.The dominant (wild-type) traits are long wings, red eyes, and graybody. A researcher crossed wild-type flies to flies with vestigialwings, purple eyes, and black bodies. All F1 flies were wild type.F1 female flies were then crossed to male flies with vestigial wings,purple eyes, and black bodies. If 1000 offspring were observed,what are the expected numbers of the following types of flies? long wings, red eyes, gray bodylong wings, purple eyes, gray bodylong wings, red eyes, black bodylong wings, purple eyes, black bodyshort wings, red eyes, gray bodyshort wings, purple eyes, gray bodyshort wings, red eyes,…
