lants are allowed to self-pollinate, 401 of the F2s have purple flowers and 131 have white flowers. What are the genotypes of the parental and F1 generation plants?

Answer:

Parentals: PP (purple) and pp (white)

F1: Pp (purple)

Explanation:

When the two parental plants of differing phenotypes (purple or white flowers) cross, the F1 is 100% purple. This result suggests that the parentals were true breeding (homozygous), with purple flowers being the dominant allele.

When the F1 self pollinates, the F2 shows proportions very similar to 3/4 purple and 1/4 white (401/532 ≅ 3/4 and 131/532 ≅ 1/4). The 3:1 phenotypic ratio is typical of the offspring resulting from a cross between two heterozygous individuals.

The results make sense if the genotypes of the different generations are:

Parentals: PP (purple) X pp (white)

F1:                          Pp (purple)

F2:  1/4 PP, 2/4 Pp, 1/4 pp

Compare indirect and direct values of biodiversity
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Direct Values - these are resources that are gathered from plant and animal sources. Examples of these are grains, fruits, vegetables, milk, eggs, fuel, wood, rubber and many others. If they are harvested and consumed directly, they are called consumptive value, and those that are marketed or sold are called productive value.

Indirect Values - these are the benefits of biodiversity that are not easily quantifiable such as supporting other biological life, social and aesthetic value and environmental service value.
