Assume that the length of wheat leaves is controlled by three loci, each with two alleles: L and l, W and w, H and h. Determine the differences in leaf length between two homozygous strains of wheat. Assume each allele contributes equally to the length of the plant leaves. One homozygous strain, ll ww hh, has leaves that are 100 mm in length, and the other strain, LL WW HH, has 220 mm leaves. The two homozygous strains are crossed, and the resulting F1 are selfed to produce F2 progeny.

Quantitative heritability refers to the expression of a trait that depends on the contribution of each of the alleles involved in the interaction. More than two genes interact to express a phenotype. 1) 140 mm / 2) 0.2344

--------------------------------------------------------

Quantitative heritability is the transmission of a phenotypic trait in which expression depends on the additive effect of a series of genes.

The interaction of more than one gene determines the expression of the trait. And these genes can also have more than two alleles.

The action of many genes and alleles can cause many different combinations that are the reason for genotypic graduation.

Quantitative traits can be measured, such as longitude, weight, eggs laid per female, among others.

These characters do not group individuals by any precise and clear categories. Instead, they group individuals in many different categories that depend on how the genes were intercrossed and distributed during meiosis.

The result depends on the magnitude in which each allele contributes to the final phenotype and genotype. When they interact, they create a gradation in phenotypes, according to the level of contribution.

                                          ********

In the exposed example, we know that

→ three diallelic genes control the length of wheat leaves L/l, W/w, H/h.

→ each allele contributes equally to the length of the plant leaves

Knowing that each allele contributes equally to the length, we can assume there are 7 possible phenotypes

The differences in leaf length between the two h0m0zyg0us strains of wheat is 220 - 100 mm = 120 mm

We know that

The contribution of each dominant allele is  

120mm / 6 alleles = 20 mm/allele.

Now, let us analyze the crosses.

1st cross:

Parentals)   LL WW HH    x     ll ww  hh

F1)   Ll Ww Hh

2nd cross: F1 selfed-cross

Parentals) Ll Ww Hh     x      Ll Ww Hh

F2)   Genotypes

Explanation:

check the attached files below for answer

false because ozone (o3) depletion does not cause global warming, but both of these environmental problems have a common cause: human activities that release pollutants into the atmosphere altering it.

global warming is caused primarily by putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when coal, oil, and natural gas are burned to generate electricity or to run our cars.

explanation:

the backbone of the dna and rna compound is sugar phosphate.
