Di-hybrid Crosses Chromosome Theory

Di-hybrid Crosses Chromosome Theory. Chromosome Theory of Inheritance. Walter Sutton: Proposed the theory in which genes were carried on chromosomes (linking the idea that genes were a pair of alleles) BIG POINT – genes which are carried on the same chromosomes DO NOT sort independently.

  1. Di-hybrid CrossesChromosome Theory

  2. Chromosome Theory of Inheritance Walter Sutton: Proposed the theory in which genes were carried on chromosomes (linking the idea that genes were a pair of alleles) BIG POINT – genes which are carried on the same chromosomes DO NOT sort independently.

  3. Di-hybrid Remember: dealing with TWO traits, therefore four alleles Punnet Square is a 4x4

  4. If a pure-breeding (homozygous) black (dominant), long-haired (recessive) cat is mated to a pure-breeding Siamese, short-haired cat, and one of their male offspring is mated to one of their female offspring, what is the chance of producing a Siamese colored, short-haired kitten?

  5. In cats, again, black colour is dominant to a special, temperature-sensitive albino gene which produces cats with dark legs, faces and tails (Siamese cats, in case you don’t recognize it). A short haired (dominant) Siamese coloured female is bred to a long-haired black male. They have eight kittens: 2 black, short-haired; 2 black, long-haired; 2 Siamese, short-haired; and 2 Siamese, long-haired. What were the genotypes of the two parents?
