23. You have two pure breeding fruit flies, with a wing shape that can be can be either normal (N) or (Vesgial) (n) and have Red Eyes or (R) or white (r). A normal and white fly is crossed with a vestigial red eyed fly. The resulting F1 plats are crossed. A total of 640 F2 progeny are phenotypically observed: (16 Points)
360 Normal and Red
120 Normal and White
120 Vestigial and Red
40 Vestigial and White
A.
Total reds = 360 + 120 = 480
Ratio = 480/640 = 0.75
Total whites = 120 + 40 = 160
Ratio = 160/640 = 0.25
Total normal = 360 + 120 = 480
Ratio = 0.75
Total vestigeal = 120 + 40 = 160
Ratio = 0.25
B.
Normal red = 360/640 = 0.5625
Normal white = 120/640 = 0.1875
Vestigeal red = 120/640 = 0.1875
Vestigel white = 40/640 = 0.0625
C.
Normal wings are dominant over vestigeal.
White pods are dominant over red pods.
(White vestigeal is least in number, so it will be recessive).
D.
P1 : RRNN × rrnn
F1 : RrNn
