In cucumbers, dull fruit (D) is dominant over glossy (d) fruit, orange friut (R) is dominant over cream fruit (r), and bitter co

tyledon (B) is dominant over non-bitter cotyledons (b). The three characters are encoded by genes located on different pairs of chromosomes. A plant homozygous for dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons is crossed with a plant that is homozygous for glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons. The F1 are intercrossed to produce the F2. Assume that all 3 traits are encoded by independent genes.
a. Write out the parental anf F1 crosses using appropriate genotypic annotation. Indicate the phenotypes and their expected proportions in the F1 and F2.

b. An F1 plant is crossed with a plant that has glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons. Write out this cross using appropriate annotation, and give the genotypes, phenotypes, and respectuve proprtions among the progeny of this cross.

Explanation:

  • Dull fruit (D) is dominant over glossy (d) fruit.
  • Orange friut (R) is dominant over cream fruit (r).
  • Bitter cotyledon (B) is dominant over non-bitter cotyledons (b).

The three genes are independent.

<h3>a)</h3>
  • A plant homozygous for dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons has the genotype <em>DDRRBB</em><em>.</em>
  • A plant homozygous for glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons has the genotype <em>ddrrbb</em>.

100% of the F1 will have dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons and will be heterozygous for all genes: <em>DdRrBb</em>.

<u>The F2 will have 8 possible phenotypes:</u>

  • 27 D_R_B dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 9 D_R_bb dull, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 9 D_rrB_ dull, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 3 D_rrbb dull, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 9 ddR_B_ glossy, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 3 ddR_bb glossy, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 3 ddrrB_ glossy, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 1 ddrrbb  glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons

<h3>b)</h3>

An F1 plant is crossed with a plant that has glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons.

<h3>DdRrBb x ddrrbb </h3>

The F1 individual can produce 8 types of gametes: DRB, DRb, DrB, Drb, dRB, dRb, drB and drb. The cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons individual can only produce drb gametes. This cross also produces a progeny with the following genotypes and phenotypic proportions:

  • 8 DdRrBb dull, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 8 DdRrbb dull, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 8 DdrrBb dull, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 8 Ddrrbb dull, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 8 ddRrBb glossy, orange fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 8 ddRrbb glossy, orange fruit and non-bitter cotyledons
  • 8 ddrrBb glossy, cream fruit and bitter cotyledons
  • 8 ddrrbb  glossy, cream fruit and non-bitter cotyledons

Romashka [77]
This role would be the organisms niche. None of the other choices make any sense. A nesting site is not a role, a biomass is not a role, and territorial range is not the role an animal has in its community. A niche is an organisms role in its community, how it interacts with the things around it, where it lives and what it does.
