Question

In hogs, an allele that produces a white belt around the animal body (W) is dominant over its allele for a uniformly colored body (w). The dominant allele for of another gene (F) produces a fusion of the two hoofs on each foot. Suppose a uniformly-colored hog homozygous for fused hoofs is mated with normal-footed hog homozygus for the belted character.

What are the genotypes of teh parents?(please be complete)

If the F1 were allowed to interbreed, what are the genotypic ratios of teh F2? (Be complete)

Explanation / Answer

Parental generation -

F1 generation:

F2 generation:

WWFF=1, WWFf=2, WWff=1,

wwFF=1, wwFf= 2, wwff= 1,

WwFF=2, WwFf=4, Wwff= 2

Phenotype Genotype uniformly-colored hog(ww), homozygous for fused hoofs(FF) wwFF homozygus belted character(WW), normal-footed hog(ff) WWff
