5. You are trying to create a new cultivar by crossing two different plants. You like the floral scent of the one plant that has yellow-green foliage and you want to combine it with the blue- green foliage of the other plant that has no floral scent. When you use one plant as the mother, you only get half as many fertile seeds than when you do the reciprocal cross. What are the possible processes involved?

Explanation / Answer

Explanation : This could probably due to cytoplasmic inheritance where the female parents extra chromosome or organelles genome determine the character. That is why reciprocal cross does not give desired results. Therefore floral scent is controlled by cytoplasmic genes rather than nuclear ones.
