In corn, three dominant alleles, called A, C, and R, must be present to produce colored seeds. Genotype A/–; C/– ; R/– is colored; all others are colorless. A colored plant AaCCRr is crossed with colorless plant aaCcRr. What proportional of offspring plant with colorless seed?

Statement: In the case of group II introns, the chemistry of splicing and the RNA intermediates produced are the same as those for nuclear pre-mRNA.

 Explanations: I. The intron uses an A residue within the branch site to attack the phosphodiester bond at the boundary between its 5’ end and the end of the 5’ exon-that is, at the 5’ splice site. This reaction produces the branched lariat.

II. A second reaction in which the newly freed 3’ -OH of the exon attacks the 3’splice site, releasing the intron as a lariat and fusing the 3’ and 5’ exons.
