Contents
- 1 How many different alleles are there? Which colors do they produce? It will be useful to use multiple-allele notation like this: CR = red; CG = green, etc.
- 2 Which are dominant and which are recessive?
- 3 How do the colors combine to produce an overall color? For this, it may help to make a genotype-phenotype table and then try to abstract rules from that. You should be sure that you have tried all the possible combinations of the alleles you found in part a.
- 4 Using the symbols you have developed, give the genotypes of the four starting organisms.
- 5 Using this knowledge, construct a purple flower.
- 6 Can you construct a pure-breeding purple flower with the starting set of organisms?
- 7 Post your findings to your section’s Lab Data Blog.
