Given some observation of the auxin signalling pathway, which one of the following are the incorrect prediction about signalling?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. auxin receptor gene family, TIR1/AFB1-5, encode F-box components of the SCF complex that functions in the degradation of AUXIN/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID (AUX/IAA) 
  2. Auxin-responsive genes typically have auxin response element (AuxRE) binding sites located in their promoter regions
  3. Auxin response factors (ARFs) are transcription factors that bind to these AuxRE motifs only stimulate transcription
  4. Auxin response factors (ARFs) are transcription factors that bind to these AuxRE motifs to stimulate or repress transcription

What is the difference between a linkage map and a physical map?

a) Genetic maps are based on recombination frequencies, but physical maps are based on restriction digestion.

b) Physical DNA map describes the absolute position of genes on a chromosome while genetic map so variable

c) Genetic maps are important to identify the origin of diseases, whether they are inherited or arise due to a random mutation.

When two independent pure lines AAbb and aaBB of pea with white flowers are crossed, the F1 progeny has purple flowers. Gene A and B link at 20 map unit. The following conclusions were made

A. When an heterozygous individual of the genotype AaBb is test crossed, progenies with purple and white in a ratio of 1:3

B. When an heterozygous individual of the genotype AaBb is test crossed, progenies with purple and white in a ratio of 1:9

C. This is an example of complementary gene action

D. The F2 progeny obtained on selfing shows both pruple and white flower in a ratio of 9:7

A three point test cross was carried out in Drosophila melanogaster involving three adjacent genes A, B and C. arranged in the same order. The distance between A to B is 15 map unit (mu) and that between B to C is 30 map. The coefficient of coincidence = 0.67. What is the percentage of double recombinants in the progeny obtained from the testcross?
