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

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

Alleles	Color
C^wC^w	White
C^yC^y	Yellow
C^gC^g	Green
C^bC^b	Blue
C^rC^r	Red

Which are dominant and which are recessive?
