In а pаrticulаr plant, leaf cоlоr is cоntrolled by gene locus D. Plants with at least one D allele have dark green leaves, and plants with the homozygous recessive dd genotype have light green leaves. A true-breeding dark-leaved plant is crossed with a light-leaved one, and the F1 offspring is allowed to self-pollinate. The predicted outcome of the F2 is diagrammed in the Punnett square shown in the figure above, where 1, 2, 3, and 4 represent the genotypes corresponding to each box within the square. Which of the boxes marked 1-4 correspond(s) to plants with dark leaves?

This questiоn is а bоnus, wоrth 5 points. Show your work to get full credit. Your reseаrch teаm has discovered a new species of plant in the wilds of Mongolia that produces cotton-like fibrous seed pods that have potential as a textile material. You have named it the cottontail plant, since the pods resemble the caudal appendage of that eponymous animal. Interestingly, the cottontail plant’s genome is divided into only two pairs of chromosomes, each of which are very large. Different individuals of the plant display a large degree of genetic variation at each locus, and certain alleles would be exceedingly favorable towards use of the polysaccharide fibers in textiles. B = big: this dominant growth factor receptor causes the seed pods to grow to a diameter of 5cm b = small: a mutation in the growth factor receptor reduces the size of the pods to 2cm T = tight: a promoter mutation induces the binding of an inappropriate transcription factor, activating a gene that creates cross-links between polysaccharide chains, making the fibers difficult to separate t = fluffy: the wild-type promoter for the cross-linking enzyme ensures that the gene is not expressed in the pods G = glossy: a carbohydrate-modifying enzyme adds amino groups to random monosaccharides in the fibers, causing the fibers to reflect light g = dull: a chromosomal inversion introduced a CpG island close to the promoter of the enzyme; methylation of the island induced heterochromatin formation that interferes with expression In order to map the locations of these three genes, a plant that is bbTTGG was crossed with one that is BBttgg. The resulting trihybrids were crossed with the triple recessive and the following offspring were typed and counted: Phenotype Small tight glossy Small tight dull Small fluffy glossy Small fluffy dull Big fluffy dull Big fluffy glossy Big tight dull Big tight glossy Total Number of Offspring 375 45 90 5 325 75 80 5 1000 Map the relative locations of the three genes, indicating distances between the loci.
