Document Summary

In incomplete dominance, dominant alleles do not completely mask recessive alleles. When we are thinking of a dominant and recessive allele, recessive is there but dominant is strong and shows: e. g. red flower and white flower cross to make pink known as incomplete dominance. Blood types: ia, ib = ab type, ia, ia, = a type, ia, i = a type, ib ,ib= b type, ib, i= b type, i, i= o type. Some phenotypes exhibit variations on a complete dominance, recessive relationships. One gene influences another, influencing trait expressions allele expression: one genes effects another gene, e. g. labrador dogs. Polygenic inheritance many different genes contribute to the same character: height is influenced by whole bunch of genes, can be effected by outside environment. One gene affects more than one character: one genes might have an issue, which causes an effect on a whole bunch of other genes.

In need of assistance. Please help answer the following.

1) Pure-breeding yellow guinea pigs crossedwith pure-breeding white guinea pigs produce only cream-coloredoffspring. This pattern indicates incomplete dominance. Rough hairis found to be dominant to smooth hair. Give the F1 and F2genotypic and phenotypic ratios of a cross of a smooth white guineapig with a homozygous rough yellow guinea pig.

2) A breeder of cattle has a herd of white cowsand a roan bull. Hair color in this breed is controlled by anincomplete dominant gene. The two homozygous forms are either redor white, and the heterozygous is roan. Answer the followingquestions please

What color calves are expected and in whatproportion?

Outline a procedure to develop an all-redherd.

3) In horses, black coat color is influenced bythe dominant allele (B), and chestnut coat color is influenced bythe recessive allele (b). Trotting gait is due to a dominant gene(T), pacing gait to the recessive allele (t). If a homozygous blacktrotter is crossed with a chestnut pacer:

What will be the appearance of the F1 and F2generations?

Which phenotype will be the most common?

Which genotype will be the most common?

Which of the potential offspring will be certain tobreed true?

4) In garden peas, one pair of alleles controlsthe height of the plant and a second pair of alleles controlsflower color. The allele for tall (D) is dominant to the allele fordwarf (d), and the allele for purple (P) is dominant for the allelefor white (p). A tall purple crossed with a tall purple produces Â¾tall purple and Â¼ tall white. What is the genotype of the parents?

5) Three alleles control the ABO blood types.I^A and I^B are codominant genes, so thecombination of I^AI^B produces the AB bloodtype. The third allele I^ois recessive to the other twoalleles. Indicate which of these parents could produce the givenchild and submit your response to the instructor.

A X AB produce B child.

A X O produce A child.

A X B produce O child.

A X AB produce O child.

A X AB produce B child.

B X B produce O child.

AB X AB produce A child.

Q 1 â Manx cats are produced when a dominant allele is inherited for the Manx gene (M). Inheritance of two dominant alleles, however, results in death of the fetus. Coat color in cats is determined by two alleles with incomplete dominance. BB produces black colored cats, Bb produces grey cats, and bb produces white cats. A grey Manx cat is mated with a white Manx. What proportion of the living offspring will be white Manx kittens? (3 points)

Q 2 â In goats, a beard is produced by an autosomal allele that is dominant in males and recessive in females. Weâll use the symbol B^b for the beard allele and B+ for the beardless allele. Another independently assorting autosomal allele that produces a black coat (W) is dominant over the allele for white coat (w). Give the phenotypes and their proportions expected for the following cross: B⁺B⁺Ww male Ã B^bB^bWw female (2 points)

Q 3 â E. W. Lindstrom crossed two corn plants with green seedlings and obtained the following progeny: 3583 green seedlings, 853 virescent-white seedlings, and 260 yellow seedlings.

Give the genotypes for the green, virescent-white, and yellow seedlings

Explain how color is determined in these seedlings (which genotype gives which phenotype). (3 points)

Q 4 â You are studying a gene that controls ossicone (horn) length in giraffes. The wild-type long-ossicone allele (L) is dominant to the mutant short-ossicone (l) allele. However the L allele is only 60% penetrant in both homozygotes and heterozygotes. In a population of 212 giraffes in an African nature preserve, 80 giraffes are either homozygous or heterozygous for the long ossicone allele (L). What proportion of offspring would you expect to exhibit the long ossicone phenotype? (2 points)
