In snapdragons tallness (T) is dominant to dwarfness (t).
Red flowers are produced by RR and white flowers by rr but
the heterozygous Rr is pink. A dwarf red snapdragon is
crossed to a homozygous tall plant with white flowers. What
is the phenotypic ratio of the F1? the F2?



In snapdragons tallness (T) is dominant to dwarfness (t). Red flowers are produced by RR and white..

Answer / sowjanya

dwarf, red snapdragon: ttRR * homozygous tall,white flowers
TTrr
F1: tR, Tr gametes
phenotypic ratio : 1:2:1
F2: TR, Tr, tR, tr gametes
9:3:3:1 .

Consider two linked autosomal genes. The dominant allele C of the first gene causes cataracts of the eye, whereas its recessive allele produces normal eyes. The dominant allele P causes polydactyly (an extra finger) whereas its allele (p) produces a normal number of fingers. A man with cataracts and normal fingers marries a woman with polydactyly and normal eyes. Their son has both polydactyly and cataracts and he marries a woman with neither trait. What is the probability that their first child will have cataracts and polydactyly?

The village of Oblong has 400 normally-shaped residents. Transferrin is an iron carrier found in blood, and electrophoretic variation of this protein is determined by an autosomal codominant system. The citizens of Oblong were typed for their transferrin complements. The distribution of transferrin phenotypes was: 100 CC, 100 CD, and 200 DD. What is the frequency of the C allele?

In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
