A large ear of corn has a total of 433 grains, including 271 purple & smooth, 73 purple & shrunken, 63yellow & smooth, & 26 yellow & shrunken. Conduct a X^2 analysis to determine if this ear of corn was produced by adihybrid cross (PpRr x PpRr) resulting in a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1.
Draw a preliminary linkage map of the three loci. What is their order? (E.g. is the forked locus between yellow and cross-veinless, or outside this region?) As this is a preliminary linkage map - do not account for double crossovers. You should base the distances on this map off your map distances calculated: yellow and forked: 39.3 mu yellow and cross-veinless: 11.9 mu cross-veinless and forked: 33.6 mu

The gene controlling ABO blood type and the gene underlying nail-patella syndrome are said to show linkage. What does that mean in terms of their relative locations in the genome? What does it mean in terms of how the two traits are inherited with respect to each other?
Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
a. If an individual who is homozygous for the mutation found in individual 2 and heterozygous for the mutation found in individual 4 marries an individual who is homozygous for the mutation found in individual 4 and heterozygous for the mutation found in individual 2, what will be the phenotype of their children? b. List the intermediate that would build up in each of the types of children who could not produce protein E.
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.

Multiple crosses were made between true-breeding lines of black and yellow Labrador retrievers. All the F1 progeny were yellow. When these progeny were intercrossed, they produced an F2 consisting of 121 yellow, 9 black and 30 chocolate. What epistatic ratio and what kind of epistasis is approximated in the F2? Propose a biochemical pathway for coat color in Labrador retrievers based on the type of epistasis. Correlate each genotype with the phenotype that would occur in your pathway. Also show the frequency of each genotype. A-B- A-bb aaB- aabb
Mendelian ratios are modified in crosses involving autotetraploids.Assume that one plant expresses the dominant trait greenseeds and is homozygous (WWWW). This plant is crossed to onewith white seeds that is also homozygous (wwww). If only onedominant allele is sufficient to produce green seeds, predict theF1 and F2 results of such a cross. Assume that synapsis betweenchromosome pairs is random during meiosis.
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.
