- 6. Identify the mode of inheritance for the following pedigree. Provide the genotypes of indicated individuals. ? Genotypes: Il-1 IV-1 V-6 Il-2 IV-2 V-12 Il-3 IV-3 V- 14 III-1 IV-4 V-16 III-13 V- 1 V-195 f There are two genes that determine the coat colour expression in dogs: eumelanin and merle. These genes are located on two separate chromosomes. For the eumelanin gene, black coat colour (E) is dominant over red coat colour (e). The merle gene controls the degree to which these coat colours are expressed through incomplete dominance. The following table describes the merle gene expression. Genotype MM Mm mm Phenotype White AAY Half colour (Grey or light red) Full colour (Black or Red) 1. If a dog breeder wants to determine the unknown genotype of a dog, what colour of dog must she use as a testcross? 2. A white dog was testcrossed, and all of the puppies had light red coats. What is the genotype of the white dog? Use a Punnett square to show your work.

- 1. In dogs, brown or black coat color is determined by a single autosomal gene with brown (b) being recessive to black (B). A separate gene called extension with alleles e and E also influences color. ee is epistatic black and brown. Dogs that are homozygous for the extension (e) allele have yellow coat color regardless of other genes. The presence of a single E allele allows black or brown to be expressed. Trixie, dog with yellow coat color, is mated to Mansfield, a dog with black coat color, and the puppies are produced in the following ratios: ½ yellow 14 black 1/4 brown What were the genotypes of Trixie and Mansfeild?17. In rats, the following genotypes of two independently assorting autosomal genes determine coat color.A_B_ (gray)A_bb (yellow)aaB_ (black)aabb (cream)A third gene pair on a separate autosome determines whether or not any color will be produced.The CC and Cc genotypes allow color according to the expression of the A and B alleles.However, the cc genotype results in albino rats regardless of the A and B alleles present. Given the inheritance pattern of coat color in rats described in Problem 17, predict the genotype and phenotype of the parents who produced the following offspring: (c) 27/64 gray: 16/64 albino: 9/64 yellow: 9/64 black: 3/64 creamA heterozygous individual has a _______ for a trait being studied. a. pair of identical alleles b. pair of nonidentical alleles c. haploid condition, in genetic terms
