The weight of the fruit of one variety of squashes is
determined by three pairs of genes: AABBCC produces 6 lb
squashes and aabbcc produces 3 lb squashes. Each dominant
allele adds 1/2 lb tothe base weight (3 lb). If a pure
breeding line that produced 6 lb squashes was crossed with
a pure breeding line that produced 3 lb squashes, what
would be the phenotypic ratio of the F1 and the F2?
Answer Posted / pinga
phenotypic ratio of F1 = 4.5 lb
phenotypic ratio of F2 = 6lb,5.5lb,5lb,4.5lb,4lb,3.5lb,3lb

In sesame, the one-pod condition (P) is dominant to the three-pod condition (p), and normal leaf (L) is dominant over wrinkled leaf (l). The two characters are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the two plants which produce the following progeny: 318 one- pod normal, 98 one-pod wrinkled, 323 three-pod normal and 104 three-pod wrinkled.
