Using the information provided in Problems 10 and 11, determine the genotype and phenotype of parents that produce the following progeny:
9/16 brown : 3/16 black : 4/16 albino

A male mouse with brown fur color is mated to two different female mice with black fur. Black female 1 produces a litter of 9 black and 7 brown pups. Black female 2 produces 14 black pups.

Choose symbols for each allele, and identify the genotypes of the brown male and the two black females.

What is the mode of inheritance of black and brown fur color in mice?

Using the information provided in Problems 10 and 11, determine the genotype and phenotype of parents that produce the following progeny:

27/64 brown : 16/64 albino : 9/64 yellow : 9/64 black : 3/64 cream

Using the information provided in Problems 10 and 11, determine the genotype and phenotype of parents that produce the following progeny:

3/8 black : 3/8 cream : 2/8 albino

You have isolated two petite mutants, pet1 and pet2, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. When pet1 is mated with wild-type yeast, the haploid products following meiosis segregate 2:2 (wild type : petite). In contrast, when pet2 is mated with wild type, all haploid products following meiosis are wild type. To what class of petite mutations does each of these petite mutants belong? What types of progeny do you expect from a pet1 × pet2 mating?

With reference to the eye color phenotypes produced by the recessive, autosomal, unlinked brown and scarlet loci in Drosophila, predict the F₁ and F₂ results of the following P₁ crosses. (Recall that when both the brown and scarlet alleles are homozygous, no pigment is produced, and the eyes are white.)

Brown x White
