You and your lab partner have isolated 20 new mutant yeast strains that are defective in synthesis of threonine, an amino acid. These Thr- mutants do not grow on minimal medium, but they do grow on minimal medium supplemented with threonine. Ten of your Thr- mutants (numbered 1 through 10) were isolated in a strain of mating type a (MAT a). The other 10 Thrmutants (numbered 11 through 20) were isolated in a strain of mating type α (MAT α). You and your lab partner cross each of the MAT a strains to each of the MAT α strains, and you include crosses to the appropriate wild-type strains. Your experimental observations are shown in the table below, where (-) indicates diploids that did not grow on minimal medium and (+) indicates diploids that did grow on minimal medium.

Which mutations are dominant?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology
  1. only 9 strain shows dominant mutation
  2. all except 9 and 14
  3. only 14 strain shows dominant mutation
  4. both 9 and 14 strain

Given below are some of the statements that regulate the sucrose loading mechanism;
A) The solute potential or, more likely, the turgor pressure of the sieve elements
B) Sucrose concentration in the apoplast
C) The available number of symporter protein molecules
Possible observation given on how to avoid regulation;
i) increase in sieve element turgor above a certain threshold would lead to a compensatory increase in loading
ii) High sucrose concentrations in the apoplast would increase phloem loading
iii) SUT1 transporter mRNA and protein have been lower after 15 hours of darkness than after a light treatment. These data suggest that the concentration of SUT1 transporter molecules could regulate loading
iv) Decrease in sieve element turgor below a certain threshold would lead to a compensatory increase in loading
v) The transporter mRNA and protein high in darkness than lower in the light treatment
