In sesame plants, the one-pod condition (P) is dominant to the three-pod condition (p), and normal leaf (L) is dominant to wrinkled leaf (l). Pod type and leaf type are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes for the two parents for all possible cross producing the following offspring:

(a) 300 one-pod, normal leaf and 100 one-pod, wrinkled leaf

(b) 323 three-pod, normal leaf and 106 three-pod, wrinkled leaf

(c) 150 one-pod, normal leaf, 147 one-pod, wrinkled leaf, 51 three-pod, normal leaf, and 48 three-pod, wrinkled leaf

(d) 223 one-pod, normal leaf, 72 one-pod, wrinkled leaf, 76 three-pod, normal leaf, and 27 three-pod, wrinkled leaf

In a plant species, a segregating line (RR- Red, Rr- Pink and rr- white) that contains both homozygotes and heterozygotes at a locus can be made homozygous by repeated selfing for several generations. What is the proportional red flower in third generations of selfing, if the level of heterozygosity in generation '0' is denoted as 1?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In watermelons, bitter fruit (B) is dominant over sweet fruit (b), and yellow spots (S) are dominant over no spots (s). The genes for these two characteristics assort independently. A homozygous plant that has bitter fruit and yellow spots is crossed with a homozygous plant that has sweet fruit and no spots. If an F1 plant is backcrossed with the bitter, yellow spotted parent, what phenotypes and proportions are expected in the offspring?

The ability to taste the chemical phenylthiocarbamide is an autosomal dominant phenotype, and the inability to taste it is recessive. If a taster woman with a nontaster father marries a taster man who in a previous marriage had a nontaster daughter. What is the probability that their first child will be tasters’ girl?
