Purpose

This experiment served to clarify the relationship between dominant and recessive genes, while also furthering my understanding of the changes caused by mutation at a biochemical level using a computer model.

Methods/Results

  1. The program title Aipotu version 1.3.3 was downloaded.
  1. In order to decipher the color of the alleles present in the default Greenhouse the following crosses were performed:
Organisms Crossed Resulting Colors Alleles Involved
Green-1 x Green-1 green Cg
Green-1 x Green-2 green Cg, Cx
Green-1 x Red green & black Cg, Cr
Green-1 x White green Cg, Cw
Green-2 x Green-2 green, blue, & yellow Cb, Cy
Green-2 x Red blue, yellow, orange, & purple Cb, Cy, Cr
Green-2 x White blue & yellow Cb & Cy
Red x White red & white Cr, Cw

How many different alleles are there? Which colors do they produce?

Alleles Color
CwCw white
CyCy yellow
CgCg green
CbCb blue
CrCr red

Which are dominant and which are recessive?

Dominant- Blue, Red, Green

Recessive- Yellow, White

How do the colors combine to produce an overall color?

Genotype Phyenotype
CgCr black
CbCr purple
CyCr orange
CwCw white
CyCy yellow
CgCg green
CbCb blue
CrCr red

Using the symbols you have developed, give the genotypes of the four starting organisms.

Organism Genotype
Green-1 CgCg
Green-2 CgCr
Red CrCw
White CwCw

Part 2

The starting color and the final color.

Starting color- Yellow Final color- Red

The change(s) in the protein sequence.

Biochem.png

The change(s) in the DNA sequence.

Molecular.png

Organism file

File:Red from Yellow 3-1.zip

Conclusion

Using this knowledge, construct a purple flower.

Cross Green-2 and Red

Can you construct a pure-breeding purple flower with the starting set of organisms?

No because purple occurs due to red and blue co-dominance.

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank Emma Young and Google for helping me with this assignment.
