Complete question:
Use the forked-line method to answer the following question.
In cucumbers, there are 3 genetic traits, as follows:
• dull fruit is dominant to glossy fruit
• orange fruit color is dominant to cream fruit color
• bitter cotyledons are dominant to nonbitter cotyledons
You cross a plant that is heterozygous for all 3 genes to another plant that is heterozygous for dull fruit and orange fruit color, but has nonbitter cotyledons. Among the next generation, what proportion of the offspring will be
a) dull, orange, bitter
b) glossy, cream, nonbitter
c) heterozygous for all 3 genes
(HINT: it's not the same answer as above)
Answer:
a) dull, orange, bitter ----- 18/64 D-O-Bb
b) glossy, cream, nonbitter ---- 2/64 ddoobb
c) heterozygous for all 3 genes --- 8/64 DdOoBb
