According to a recent model, the balance between the activities of ABA and gibberellin in seeds is under both developmental and environmental control such as

a) early stages of seed development, ABA sensitivity is high and gibberellin sensitivity is low, which favors dormancy over germination

b) Later in seed development, ABA sensitivity declines and gibberellin sensitivity increases, favoring germination.

c) Environmental factors such as temperature  and light affect the ABA:GA ratios by activation of the  NCED and GA2ox enzyme, which promotes seed dormancy

d) During an Ambient environment, activation of GA3ox and CYP707A2 inducing dormancy

In Drosophila melanogaster, black body (b) is recessive to gray body (B), purple eyes (pr) are recessive to red eyes (PR), and vestigial wings (vg) are recessive to normal wings (VG). The loci coding for these traits are linked, with the following map distances

 The interference among these genes is 0.5. Pure line breeding cross Gray body, Red eye, normal wings with black body, purple eye, vestigial wings. If heterozygous female for all loci were allowed test cross, the of progeny with gray body, purple eye and vestigial  wings out of 1400?

Early in the development of a plant, a mutation in cpDNA removes a specific BgIII restriction site (B) In this species cpDNA is inherited maternally. Seeds from the plant are grown, and the resulting progeny plants are sampled for cpDNA. The cpDNAs are cut with BgIII, and Southern blots are hybridized with the probe P shown. The autoradiograms show three patterns of hybridization:

Which of the following is correct about plant of seed?

a. plant of seed 1 having only mutated chloroplast

b- Plant of seed 2 having only normal chloroplast

c- Plant of seed 3 having only normal chloroplast

d- Plant of seed 3 having both normal and mutant chloroplast

A panel of cell lines was created from mouse–human somatic cell fusions. Each line was examined for the presence of human chromosomes and for the production of human haptoglobin (a protein). The following results were obtained: On the basis of these results, which human chromosome carries the gene for haptoglobin?

In rabbit, spotted pattern is dominant over solid colour and short hair over angora . A F1 spotted short hair was test cross to solid colour angora stock. The cross produced

Spotted angora               - 26                        

Solid coloured angora     144

Spotted short hair            157                      

Solid colour short hair       23
