Lecture: Dihybrid Crosses
2
Warm-up 1.If a pea plant is heterozygous for its yellow pod color, what is its genotype? 1.What are the odds it will pass on a trait for yellow color? 2.Use a Punnett square to show a cross of a heterozygous yellow-pod pea plant with a green- pod pea plant. 3.During what phase of meiosis do homologous pairs separate? During what phase of meiosis do sister chromatids separate? X X X
3
Independent Segregation for 2 traits on separate chromosomes XX Or… XX XXXX XXXX XXXX How many different combinations can be made in gamete cells? XXXX

Let’s Practice! EVERYONE DO THIS IN YOUR JOURNAL! Let’s look at two traits for pea plants, flower color and plant height. Flowers can be purple or white. Purple is dominant. What letter should we use? P-purple, p-white Plants can be tall or short. Tall is dominant. What letter should we use? T-tall, t-short We will cross dihybrid plants, what are their genotypes? What are their phenotypes? PpTt Purple and Tall
