Assuming diallelic genes that express complete d0minance, <em>4/16 = 25% </em><em>of the </em><em>progeny</em><em> is expected to be </em><em>male</em><em> with barred feathers and a pea comb.</em>

<h3><u>Available data</u></h3>

<u></u>

  • Male chickens carry two Z chromosomes.
  • Female chickens carry one Z and one W chromosomes.
  • The gene for barring is in the Z chromosome.
  • The barred trait is d0minant over unbarred trait.
  • Gene for comb is aut0s0mic.
  • The rose comb is d0minant over the pea comb.

Assuming diallelic genes that express complete d0minance, let us say that

  • Barred → Z⁺Z⁺, and Z⁺Z⁻
  • Unbarried → Z⁻Z⁻
  • Rose comb → RR and Rr
  • Pea comb → rr

Cross: unbarred male heter0zyg0us for the rose-comb with a barred female with a single comb.

Parentals)   Z⁻Z⁻ Rr     x    Z⁺W rr

Gametes) Z⁻ R, Z⁻ R, Z⁻ r, Z⁻ r

                Z⁺r, Z⁺r, Wr, Wr

Punnett square)        Z⁻ R             Z⁻ R           Z⁻ r           Z⁻ r

                    Z⁺r       Z⁺Z⁻Rr         Z⁺Z⁻Rr        Z⁺Z⁻rr     Z⁺Z⁻rr

                    Z⁺r       Z⁺Z⁻Rr         Z⁺Z⁻Rr        Z⁺Z⁻rr     Z⁺Z⁻rr

                    Wr        WZ⁻Rr         WZ⁻Rr        WZ⁻rr     WZ⁻rr

                    Wr        WZ⁻Rr         WZ⁻Rr        WZ⁻rr     WZ⁻rr

F1) 4/16 individuals are expected to be males with barred feathers and rose combs, Z⁺Z⁻Rr.

    4/16 individuals are expected to be males with barred feathers and pea combs, Z⁺Z⁻rr.

   4/16 individuals are expected to be females with unbarred feathers and rose combs, WZ⁻Rr.

    4/16 individuals are expected to be females with unbarred feathers and pea combs, WZ⁻rr.

<em />

<em>4/16 = 25% </em><em>of the </em><em>progeny</em><em> is expected to be </em><em>male</em><em> with barred feathers and a pea comb.</em>
