61. The RFLP pattern observed for two pure parental lines (P1 and P2) and their F1 progeny is represented below. Further, the P1 plant had red flowers while the P2 […]
A pair of alleles govern seed size in a crop plant. ‘B’ allele responsible for bold seed is dominant over ‘b’ allele controlling small seed. An experiment was carried out […]
59. A new mutant called early ripening (EL) is identified in a plant. The wild type phenotype is late ripening (LR). Further DNA marker(s) is/are observed to be polymorphic between […]
58. Two homozygous individuals (Pl and P2), were genotyped using dominant DNA markers A and B, as shown below. The F1 progeny obtained was test crossed and frequency of progeny […]
57. In recent decades.the use of genetic markers has allowed the rapid introgression and selection of desired breeding stocks in advance generations. In this regard, following statements are given: A. […]
56. The following are statements above molecular markers in the context of plant breeding A. Molecular markers can be used for elimination of undesirable traits B. Molecular markers cannot be […]
A disease-resistant plant was crossed With a susceptible plant and the resultant F1 plants were disease resistant. The F1 plant was seifed and the F2 individuals were analyzed for qualitative […]
16. Two inbred lines of beans were intercrossed. In F1 the variance in bean length was measured as 2.0. The F1 was selfed to obtain F2 and the variance in […]
15. Body weight of rabbits is determined by pairs of alleles at two loci, ‘a’ and ‘b’ that are additive and equal in their effects. Rabbits with genotype a– a– […]
14. Two pure line of corn have mean cob length of 9 cm and 3 cm, respectively. The polygenes involved in this trait exhibit additive gene action. Crossing these two […]
