DESCRIPTION
Title: Investigating the genetics of body shape and body colour in dragonflies. Hypothesis 1) The allele which codes for gray colour is dominant over the allele which codes of brown colour. 2) The allele which codes for pointy body is dominant over the allele which codes of long body. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT
Title: Investigating the genetics of body shape and body colour in dragonfliesHypothesis 1) The allele which codes for gray colour is dominant over the allele which codes of brown colour.2) The allele which codes for pointy body is dominant over the allele which codes of long body.3) The genes for body colour and body shape are not linked.
Cross 1: Brown, Long x Brown, Pointy
Chi square is 0.085, d.f. =1, p=0.7702.Since p value is more than 0.05, we do not
reject the null hypothesis.
Cross 2: Brown, Long x Gray, Long
Chi square is 0.005, d.f. =1, p=0.9418.Since p value is more than 0.05, we do not
reject the null hypothesis.
Cross 3: Brown, Pointy x Gray, Long & Test cross with F1 generation
Done by: Low Chor Meng & Ganison Rajamohan
Chi square is 0.952, d.f. =3, p=0.8129.Since p value is more than 0.05, we do not
reject the null hypothesis.
