Read the given paragraph to answer
In a certain plant, yellow fruit colour (Y) is dominant to green fruit colour (y) and round shape (R) is dominant to oval shape (r). The two genes involved are located on different chromosomes.
Which of the following is correct for the condition when plant YyRr is back crossed with the double recessive parent ?

A

`9: 3:3:1` ratio of phenotypes only

B

`9:3:3:1` ratio of genotypes only

C

`1: 1:1:1` ratio of phenotypes only

D

`1: 1:1:1` ratio of phenotypes and genotypes

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

When YyRr is crossed with double recessive parent then genotypic and phenotypic ratio will be `1:1:1:1`

Phenotypic ratio = 1 yellow round : 1 yellow oval : 1 green round : 1 green and oval. This represent a test cross.

Read the given paragraph to answer In a certain plant, yellow fruit colour (Y) is dominant to green fruit colour (y) and round shape (R) is dominant to oval shape (r). The two genes involved are located on different chromosomes. Which of the following will result when plant YyRr is self-pollinated ?

In Pisum, yellow seed colour (Y) is dominant over green (y), and round shape of seed (R ) is dominant over wrinkled (y). Consider that these two pair of genes assort independently, then (i) What proportion of the offsprings from the cross the cross YyRr xx yyrr would expected to have yellow-seeded trait ? (ii) From the cross Yyrr xx Yyrr , how many will be pure yellow-wrinkled plants in the resulting generation ?

In Garden Pea, yellow colour of cotyledons is dominant over green and round shape of seed is dominant over wrinkled. When a plant with yellow and round seeds is crossed with a plant having yellow and wrinkled seeds, the progeny showed segregation for all the four characters. The probability of obatining green round seeds in the progeny of this case is
