In pea plants, plant height, seed shape, and seed color are governed by three independently assorting genes. The three genes have dominant and recessive alleles, with tall (T) dominant to short (t), round (R) dominant to wrinkled (r), and yellow (G) dominant to green (g).


What proportion of the F2 are expected to be tall, wrinkled, yellow? ttRRGg?

Step 1: Understand the problem. The question involves three independently assorting genes, each with dominant and recessive alleles. We are tasked with finding the proportion of F₂ offspring with the genotype ttRRGg, which corresponds to tall (tt), wrinkled (RR), and yellow (Gg).
Step 2: Apply Mendel's laws of inheritance. Since the genes assort independently, calculate the probability of each genotype separately and then multiply the probabilities together to find the overall proportion.
Step 3: Determine the probability of the 'tt' genotype. In a monohybrid cross (Tt × Tt), the offspring genotype probabilities are 1/4 TT, 1/2 Tt, and 1/4 tt. Therefore, the probability of 'tt' is 1/4.
Step 4: Determine the probability of the 'RR' genotype. In a monohybrid cross (Rr × Rr), the offspring genotype probabilities are 1/4 RR, 1/2 Rr, and 1/4 rr. Therefore, the probability of 'RR' is 1/4.
Step 5: Determine the probability of the 'Gg' genotype. In a monohybrid cross (Gg × Gg), the offspring genotype probabilities are 1/4 GG, 1/2 Gg, and 1/4 gg. Therefore, the probability of 'Gg' is 1/2. Multiply the probabilities of 'tt', 'RR', and 'Gg' together to find the overall proportion of F₂ offspring with the genotype ttRRGg.

Mendelian Genetics

Mendelian genetics is the study of how traits are inherited through generations based on the principles established by Gregor Mendel. It includes concepts such as dominant and recessive alleles, which determine the expression of traits. In this context, tall (T) is dominant over short (t), round (R) over wrinkled (r), and yellow (G) over green (g). Understanding these principles is crucial for predicting the inheritance patterns in offspring.

Descriptive Genetics

Independent Assortment

The principle of independent assortment states that alleles for different traits segregate independently of one another during gamete formation. This means that the inheritance of one trait does not affect the inheritance of another. In the case of the pea plants, the genes for height, seed shape, and seed color assort independently, allowing for a variety of combinations in the offspring, which is essential for calculating the expected proportions of phenotypes.

Punnett Square

A Punnett square is a diagram used to predict the genotypes and phenotypes of offspring from a genetic cross. By organizing the alleles of the parents, it allows for a visual representation of all possible combinations in the F₂ generation. In this scenario, constructing a Punnett square for the traits of height, seed shape, and seed color will help determine the expected proportion of offspring that are tall, wrinkled, and yellow.

Blue moon beans produce beans that are either the dominant color blue or the recessive color white. The bean pods for this species always contain four seeds each. If two heterozygous plants that each have the Bb genotype are crossed, what are the predicted frequencies of each of the five outcome classes for combinations of blue and white seeds in pods?

A variety of pea plant called Blue Persian produces a tall plant with blue seeds. A second variety of pea plant called Spanish Dwarf produces a short plant with white seed. The two varieties are crossed, and the resulting seeds are collected. All of the seeds are white; and when planted, they produce all tall plants. These tall F₁ plants are allowed to self-fertilize. The results for seed color and plant stature in the F₂ generation are as follows:

  

Which phenotypes are dominant, and which are recessive? Why?

In the fruit fly Drosophila, a rudimentary wing called 'vestigial' and dark body color called 'ebony' are inherited as independently assorting genes and are recessive to their dominant counterparts full wing and gray body color. Dihybrid dominant-phenotype males and females are crossed, and 3200 progeny are produced. How many progeny flies are expected to be found in each phenotypic class?
