In the pearl millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and Rp3 (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 >Rp2 >Rp3). Which of the following parental cross would produce ½ had red, ¼ purple, ¼ green?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology
  1. Rp1 Rp2  X   Rp1 Rp3     

  2. Rp1 Rp2  X   Rp2 Rp3 

  3. Rp1 Rp2  X   Rp3 Rp3   

  4. Rp1 Rp3  X   Rp2 Rp3

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.

In tomatoes, tall (D) is dominant over dwarf (d) and smooth fruit (P) is dominant over pubescent fruit (p), which is covered with fine hairs. A farmer has two tall andsmooth tomato plants, which we will call plant A and plant B. The farmer crosses plants A and B with the same dwarf and pubescent plant and obtains the following numbers of progeny

a. The genotypes of both plant A and plant B are DdPp

b. In plant A, Gene D and Gene P link as cis configuration

c. In plant B, Gene D and Gene P link as cis configuration

d. In plant A, Gene D and Gene P link as trans configuration

e. In plant B, Gene D and Gene P link as trans configuration
