प्रश्न

In a monohybrid cross of plants with red and white flowered plants, Mendel got only red-flowered plants. On self-pollinating these F1 plants got both red and white flowered plants in 3:1 ratio. Explain the basis of using RR and rr symbols to represent the genotype of plants of parental generation.

उत्तर

On crossing red and white flower only red colour flower appeared in the F1 generation. But the white colour flower again appear in the F2 generation which is raised out of the F1 individuals only. Mendel reasoned that there is a factor of each and every character. Accordingly, there has to be one factor (R) for red flower and other one factor (r) for white flower. In case, an organism possess only one copy of the gene then the possibility of reappearance of white flower in the F2 generation of the given cross is not there. Also the ratio (3:1 of red and white) indicates that each organism must possess two copies of a particular gene.

Cross between hybrid and recessive parent:


In a cross between red coloured and white coloured flowers, when plants with red coloured flowers of F1 generation were self pollinated, plants of F2 generation were obtained in which 75% of plants were with red flowers and 2.5% plants were with white flowers.

Explain the inheritance of traits in the above cross with the help of a flow chart only along with the ratio of plants obtained.


Assertion (A): In humans, if gene (B) is responsible for black eyes and gene (b) responsible for brown eyes, then the colour of eyes of the progeny having gene combination Bb, bb or BB will be black only.

Reason (R): The black colour of the eyes is a dominant trait.
