INCOMPLETE/ CODOMINANT PROBLEMS

1) In Snapdragon ft owe rs, red is NOT dominant over white color.

RR= red, rr = white, Rr = pink

a) Cross a red and white plant together.

What are the genotype & phenotype ratios?

b) From the previous problem, cross two Fl generation plants giving phenotype & genotype ratios :

2) In shorthorn cattle a pair of alleles determines the color of coat.

A color homozygous gene may produce a red or white coat, but

a heterozygous gene will produce a roan (spotted) coat.

Cross a red cow with a roan cow & indicate all ratios.
3) When a homozygous mink for white fur is crossed with a

homozygous mink for black fur, the offspring are all

a Koh-i-nur (silver) color.

a) Cross a Koh-i-nur and black mink. List genotype & phenotype ratios.

b) Cross two Koh-i-nur minks together. What is the probability of having a white mink? Show your work.

4) In radishes, when a plant homozygous for red is crossed with a

homozygous white plant, they produce purple radishes.

a) What are the gametes produced by a red radish? _(\~l~'r'~--

b) What are the gametes produced by a purple radish?

c) What is the genotype of a purple plant? _-'"-1"r-_ __

 ) In some cats the gene for tail length shows incomplete do mi nance. Cats with long tails and cats with no tails are
homozygous for their respective alleles. Cats with one long tail allele and one no tail allele have short tails. For each of
the following construct a pun nett square and give phenotypic and genotype ratios of the offspring.

a) a long tail cat and a cat with no tail

b) a long tail cat and a short tail cat
