What causes nonreciprocal translocation?
An individual is heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation, with the following chromosomes: A • B C D E F A • B C V W X R ST • U D E F R ST • U V W X Q. Draw the products of alternate, adjacent-1, and adjacent-2 segregations.
An individual heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation possesses the following chromosomes: A B • C D E F G A B • C D V W X R S • T U E F G R S • T U V W X Q. Give the products that result from alternate, adjacent-1, and adjacent-2 segregation.
Explain the difference between crossing over and reciprocal translocation. Give an example of a possible decease caused by reciprocal translocation.
An individual heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation possesses the following chromosomes: A B ● C D E F G, A B • C D V W X, R S •T U E F G, R S•T U V W Xa. Draw the pairing arrangement of these chromosomes in prophase 1 of meiosis. Mention their gametic composition. b. Draw the alternate, adjacent I, and adjacent II segregation patterns in anaphase I of meiosis. Mention their gametic composition.
In rice, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of rice plants (i.e. the stamen) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile rice plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male-sterile lines. Give the result(s) of the cross and explain the phenotype of the offspring.
Explain how it is possible for a person with a translocationor an inversion to be phenotypically normal.
What is an example of translocation?
n corn, male sterility is controlled by maternal cytoplasmic elements. This phenotype renders the male part of the corn plants (i.e the tassel) unable to produce fertile pollen; the female parts, however, remain receptive to pollination by pollen from male fertile corn plants. However, the presence of a nuclear fertility restorer gene F restores fertility to male sterile lines sing the cardboard chips, simulate the crosses indicated below. Give the genotypes and phenotypes of the offsprings in each cross, and properly label the nucleus and the cytoplasm of each individual in the cross Legend male sterile cytoplasm Male fertile cytoplasm FF nucleus Ff nucleus ff nucleus A. Male sterile female x FF male Explain the phenotype of the offspring B. Male sterile female x Ff male Explain the phenotype of the offspring
