Intermediate filaments are the only nonpolar fibrous component of the cytoskeleton and are not associated with motor proteins. Intermediate filaments are built from coiled coil dimers that associate in an antiparallel fashion into tetramers and then into protofilaments, 16 of which make up the filament. There are five major classes of intermediate filament proteins. Match the following proteins (Column I) with their class (Column II).

In the pearl-millet plant, color is determined by three alleles at a single locus: Rp1 (red), Rp2 (purple), and rp (green). Red is dominant over purple and green, and purple is dominant over green (Rp1 > Rp2 > rp). What will be expected phenotypes and ratios of offspring produced by the Rp1/rp × Rp2/rp crosses?
