Question
data for first two pages:
Monohybrid Cross:
Purple hypocotyl - 942
Green hypocotyl - 406
Dihybrid Cross:
Purple hypocotyl, green cotyledons - 687
Purple hypocotyl, yellow cotyledons - 255
Green hypocotyl, green cotyledons - 310
Green hypocotyl, yellow cotyledons - 96
Explanation / Answer
A. Monohybrid cross analyses
Number of purple cotyledons= 942
Number of green cotyledons= 406
Total number of seedlings= 1348
1. what possible genotypes could plants with purple hypocotyls have?
Answer: PP or Pp
2. what possible genotypes could plants with green hypocotyls have?
answer:gg
3. Purple: expected value: 1348/4 *3= 1011
observed value: 942
observed -expected= 1011-942=69
(O-E)2= 4761
chi square: (O-E)2/E= 4761/1011= 4.709
Green
expected value: 1348/4*1= 337
Observed value: 406
(O-E)2= (406-337)2= 4761
chi square= (O-E)2/E= 4761/337= 14.12
4. Degree of freedom= Number of phenotypes -1
2-1=1
Chi square value for df=1 (0.05)= 3.84
5. chi square values obtained from calculations above are greater than table value so 3:1 hypothesis does not fit in.
B. Dihybrid cross analysis=
Dihybrid Cross:
Observed value(O) Expected value(E) (O-E) (O-E)2 (O-E)2/E
Purple hypocotyl, green cotyledons - 687 758.25 71.25 5076.56 6.69
Purple hypocotyl, yellow cotyledons - 255 252.75 2.25 5.0625 0.02
Green hypocotyl, green cotyledons - 310 252.75 57.25 3277.56 12.96
Green hypocotyl, yellow cotyledons - 96 84.25 11.75 138.06 1.63
chi square value= sum of (O-E)2/E= 21.3
2. Degree of freedom= 4-1=3
chi square critical value for df 3= 7.82
3. 9:3:3:1 ratio cannot be accepted since chi square value is way higher than critical value
c. Genetics Problems
Problem 1. Monohybrid crosses
a) A homozygous hairy plant TT is pollinated by b) homozygous hairless tt plant
c) T allele is carried by egg d) t allele is carried by sperm e) genotype of F1 generation is Tt
f) phenotype will be hairy plant since hairy trait is dominant over hairless
g) If Tt is self pollinated phenotype of F2 will be both hairy and hairless
h) alleles carried by eggs of parents of F2= T and t
i) alleles carried by sperm of parent of F2= T and t
j) phenotypic ratio= 3 (hairy) and 1(hairless)= 3:1
k) genotypic ratio= 1 (homozygous hairy): 2(heterzygous hairy): 1(homozygous hairless)= 1:2:1
Problem 2
A blue flower plant is pollinated by ed flower plant half progeny are blue and half are red
Genotype of parents: blue (Ff) red (ff)
genotypes of progeny will be either Ff or ff
Problem 3 Dihybrid cross
Round seed with hairy plant is crossed with oblong seed with hairless plant
TTSS X ttss
a) alleles carried by eggs TS
b) alleles carried by sperm ts
c) TTSS X ttss
ts ts
TS TtSs TtSs
TS TtSs TtSs
d) genotype of F1: TtSs
e) phenotype of F1 hairy plant with round seed
f) TtSs X TtSs
TS Ts tS ts
TS TTSS TTSs TtSS TtSs
Ts TtSs TTss TtSs Ttss
tS TtSS TtSs ttSS ttSs
ts TtSs Ttss ttSs ttss
g) phenotype of F2 generation; round hairy, round hairless, oblong hairy and oblong hairless
h) phenotypic ratio 9:3:3;1
i) genotypic ratio 1:2:2:1:4:1:2:2:1
j) TTSS, TtSS, TtSs
Problem 4
Tall plant (TT)
Dwarf plant (tt)
TT X tt= Tt (intermediate height)
Tt X Tt
Progeny will be TT, Tt, Tt and tt so phenotypes will be 1 tall 1 dwarf and 2 intermediate height and ratio will be 1:2:1
