Puzzel C3

7 important questions on Puzzel C3


wo corn plants are studied. One is resistant (R) and the other is susceptible (S) to a certain pathogenic
fungus. The following crosses are made, with the results shown:

S female X R male → all progeny S
R female X S male → all progeny R

What can you conclude about the location of the genetic determinants of R and S


The genetic determinants of R and S are showing maternal inheritance and are therefore
cytoplasmic. It is possible that the gene that confers resistance maps either to the mtDNA or cpDNA
