Renner carried out reciprocal crosses between two types of the evening primrose, Oenothera hookeri and O. muricata, known to have the same chromosome constitution. When the seed parent was O. hookeri, the plastids of the progeny were yellow; but when the seed parent was O. muricata, the plastids of the progeny were green. How might this difference in the results of reciprocal crosses be explained?
three recessive genes a, b, and c in the model plant Arabidopsis are found to be linked on chromosome 4. A three point test cross is done with a homozygous recessive plant with a heterozygous for all three genes.

In a test cross, peas of an unknown genotype are crossed with peas of a known genotype. In this example, smooth peas are the unknown and wrinkled peas are the known (rr). If half of the offspring from that cross are smooth and half are wrinkled, what is the genotype of the unknown plant?
In corn, the genes v (virescent seedlings), pr (red aleurone), and bm (brown midrib) are all on chromosome 5, but not necessarily in the order given. The cross: v+ pr bm/ v pr+ bm+ with v pr bm/ v pr bm produces 1000 progeny with the following phenotypes: v+ pr bm 226 v pr+ bm+ 229 v+ pr bm+ 153 v pr+ bm 185 v+ pr+ bm 59 v pr bm+ 71 v+ pr+ bm+ 36 v pr bm 41 What is the gene order, and the (b) genetic map of these three genes?
Imagine you are crossing two plants that have these two genotypes—Tt and tt. What are the two genotypes of the gametes that the Tt plant can make? What is the one genotype of the gametes that the tt plant can make? Set up a Punnett square to analyze the cross. Does the Punnett square need to have four boxes or just two? If you were crossing a TT plant with a tt plant, how many boxes would be necessary in a Punnett square?
In corn, the allele f ′ causes floury endosperm and the allele f ″ causes flinty endosperm. In the cross f ′/f ′ ×f ″/f ″, all the progeny endosperms are floury, but, in the reciprocal cross, all the progeny endosperms are flinty. What is a possible explanation? (Check the legend for Figure 2-7.)
Imagine that the genes for seed color and seed shape are located on the same chromosome. A cross is made between two true-breeding plants. One plant produces green wrinkled seed (rryy) and the second parent produced round yellow seeds (RRYY). A test cross is made between the F1 generation with the following results: green, wrinkled 645 green round 36 yellow wrinkled 29 yellow round 590 a) Draw the chromosomes of parents and four types of offsprings and show the recombinant and non-recombinants in the offsprings. b) What is the recombination frequency between two loci?

In tomato, the following genes are located on chromosome 2: + tall plant d dwarf plant + uniformly green leaves m mottled green leaves + smooth fruit p pubescent (hairy) fruit Results of the cross +++ / dmp and dmp / dmp were: + + + = 470 + m p = 1 + + p = 14 d + p = 25 d + + = 0 d m p = 441 + m + = 19 d m + = 30 Identify the single and double crossovers among the progeny.
One strain of periwinkleplants has green leaves and another strain has white leaves. Bothstrains are true-breeding. You do not know if the phenotypicdifference is due to alleles of a nuclear gene or an organellar gene.The two strains were analyzed using reciprocal crosses, and thefollowing results were obtained:A plant with green leaves is pollinated by a plant with whiteleaves: all offspring have green leaves.A plant with white leaves is pollinated by a plant with greenleaves: all offspring have white leaves. Is this pattern of inheritance consistent with simple Mendelianinheritance, where green is dominant to white, and/or is it consistentwith maternal inheritance?
