N2 combines with hydrogen to form ammonia under elevated temperature (about 200°C) and high pressure (about 200 atmospheres) and in the presence of a metal catalyst (usually iron). The extreme conditions are required to overcome the high activation energy of the reaction. This nitrogen fixation reaction, called

In this problem we will explore some of the many ways that mutations in two different genes can interact to produce different Mendelian ratios. Consider a hypothetical insect species that has red eyes. Imagine mutations in two different unlinked genes that can, in certain combinations, block the formation of red eye pigment yielding mutants with white eyes. In principle, there are two different possible arrangements for two biochemical steps responsible for the formation of red eye pigment. The two genes might act in series such that a mutation in either gene would block the formation of red pigment. Alternatively, the two genes could act in parallel such that mutations in both genes would be required to block the formation of red pigment.
Further complexity arises from the possibility that mutations in either gene that lead to a block in enzymatic activity could be either dominant or recessive. If the crosses is made between a wild type insect with red eyes and a true breeding white eyed strain with mutations in both genes. Such considerations yield the Pathways in series with recessive mutations in both genes, what will be the phenotype in F1 progeny?

Environmental factors such as photoperiod and temperature can alter the levels of active gibberellins by affecting gene transcription for specific steps in the biosynthetic pathway such as;

a) Promotion of germination by light has been shown to be due to increases in GA1 levels resulting from a light-induced increase in the transcription of the gene for GA3ox, which converts GA20 to GA1

b) level of GA20-oxidase occurs in the highest amount in shoot tips and elongating stems, is increased under long-day conditions.  The fact that GA 20-oxidase is the enzyme that converts GA53 to GA20

c) Giving cold treatment  of Thlaspiarvense and a return to high temperatures, the ent-kaurenoic acid is converted to GA9, the most active gibberellin for stimulating the flowering response

d) Potato plants overexpressing the GA20ox gene showed tuberization, whereas transformation with the antisense gene for GA20ox inhibited tuberization
