 a) Chalcone synthase catalyzes the conversion of p-Coumaroyl-CoA into Chalcones

 b) Substrate for Chalcone synthase is chalcone

 c) CHS activity increased by environmental factors, such as light, and fungal infection

 d) Chalcone synthase is enzyme in flavonoid biosynthesis catalyzes stepwise condensation into p-Coumaric acid by using Malonyl-CoA molecules

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

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
