A Neurospora colony at the edge of a plate seemed to be sparse (low density) in comparison with the other colonies on the plate. This colony was thought to be a possible mutant, and so it was removed and crossed with a wild type of the opposite mating type. From this cross, 100 ascospore progeny were obtained. None of the colonies from these ascospores was sparse, all appearing to be normal. What is the simplest explanation of this result? How would you test your explanation? (Note: Neurospora is haploid.)
Individuals of genotype AaBb were mated to individuals of genotype aabb. One thousand offspring were counted, with the following results: 474 Aabb, 480 aaBb, 20 AaBb, and 26 aabb. What type of cross is it? Are these loci linked? What are the two parental classes and the two recombinant classes of offspring? What is the percentage of recombination between these two loci? How many map units apart are they?
One yeast strain carries the alleles lys+ and arg+, whereas another strain has lys-3 and arg-2. The two strains were crossed toeach other, and an ascus obtained from this cross has four spores with the following genotypes: lys+ arg+, lys+ arg-2, lys-3arg+, and lys-3 arg 2. This ascus has a. a parental ditype.b. a tetratype.c. a nonparental ditype.d. either a tetratype or a nonparental ditype.
In onion, male sterility is produced when the nuclear genotype is aa and the mitochondrial gene S (sterile) are present. Any other combination of nuclear genotype and mitochondrial gene (including gene F for fertile) will result in a male fertile plant. Give the genotypic ratio and the phenotypic ratio or the percentage of male sterile and male fertile offspring that will be produced in the following crosses. 1. Aa + S male x aa + F female 2. Reciprocal cross of number 1. (Note that when we do reciprocal cross, we interchange/swap the genotypes of the parents (if there is a nuclear gene involved, you interchange the nuclear genotype as well). 3. Aa + S female x Aa + F male 4. Reciprocal cross of number 3.
Give only typing answer with explanation and conclusion to all parts Two true-breeding varieties of maize, one 11 cm high and the other 47 cm high were crossed and the resultant F1 hybrids were then crossed to generate the F2 . In the F2 there were a total of 13,923 plants with a continuous variation in heights between the two extremes and with only 3 plants as large as 47 cm high and 5 plants of 11 cm high. a) How many i) genes and ii) how many alleles are involved in determining height in this plant? b) What is the contribution of each dominant allele to the phenotype in cm?
A cross was performed using Drosophila melanogaster involving a female known to be heterozygous for both ebony body and sepia eyes and a male known to be homozygous wild type male. The resulting progeny were allowed to mate with one another to produce the data set. Three repetitions of the experiment were conducted. The following data were produced from the crosses. Test these data to determine if they are significantly different from the expected phenotypic ratio. Use the 5% level of significance. Your answer should include the hypothesized cross in genotypes, the Chi-squared value, the critical value and whether you reject or do not reject for each experiment. Wild eye Wild body – 112, Wild eye Ebony body – 40, Sepia eye Wild body – 35, Sepia eye Ebony body – 11
Two crosses were made in Neurospora involvingthe mating type locus and either the ad or p genes.In both cases, the mating type locus (A or a) was oneof the loci whose segregation was scored. One crosswas ad A × ad+ a (cross i), and the other was p A × p+ a(cross ii). From cross i, 10 parental ditype, 9 nonparental ditype, and 1 tetratype asci were seen.From cross ii, the results were 24 parental ditype,3 nonparental ditype, and 27 tetratype asci.a. What are the linkage relationships between themating type locus and the other two loci?b. Although these two crosses were performed inNeurospora, you cannot use the data given tocalculate centromere-to-gene distances for anyof these genes. Why not?
In jabuticaba tree plant, Plinia cauliflora, the AA, Aa plants round fruit and aa oval fruit, the CC, Cc individuals show dark purple fruit and cc individuals are yellow; for the B locus B1B1 plants have all the fruit in their bark, B2B2 plants have fruit in the branches only and B1B2 plants have fruit in their bark and branches. A trihybrid jabuticaba having the genotype AaB1B2Cc is self-fertilized. Is there complete dominance at the B loci, yes or no? Please explain.
You perform a cross between a parent with the genotype WWiiNNttEErr and another parent that is wwllnnTTeerr. All genes are unlinked except for W and I which are 22 mu apart. You take an F1 from this cross and cross it with an individual that is wwiiNntteerr. a) What is the probability that this final cross yields an offspring that is wwiinntteerr? b) What is the probability that this final cross yields an offspring that is NNTT or Nntt. (You can ignore all of the other genes for this question.)
Consider these two crosses and assume that independent segregation is exhibited by all gene pairs: RrmmTT x RRMmTtFfGg x FfGg Derive the gametic ratio of the second parent in each cross using the branching method. What proportion of the offspring in each cross will be heterozygous for all gene pairs? Derive the genotypic ratio for the offspring from each cross using the branching method. Show complete solutions.
In a species of firefly, wide wings (W) are dominant to narrow wings (w) and graybodies (C) are dominant to brown bodies (c). A WwCc and wwcc fly were mated andproduced the following offspring: (in the picture attached) What is the recombination frequency for this cross (in percent)?
Wild-type strains of the haploid fungus Neurospora canmake their own tryptophan. An abnormal allele td renders the fungus incapable of making its own tryptophan.An individual of genotype td grows only when its medium supplies tryptophan. The allele su assorts independently of td; its only known effect is to suppress the tdphenotype. Therefore, strains carrying both td and su donot require tryptophan for growth.a. If a td ; su strain is crossed with a genotypically wildtype strain, what genotypes are expected in the progenyand in what proportions?b. What will be the ratio of tryptophan-dependent totryptophan-independent progeny in the cross of part a?
