In cats, the Dense pigment gene, D/d, codes for melanophilin, a protein involved in the transportation and deposition of pigment
Rainbow [2354]

Answer:

a. M_D_: 9/16 Individuals with black fur

b. M__dd: 3/16 Individuals with gray fur (1/16 MMdd + 2/16 Mmdd)

c. mmD_: 3/16 Individuals with brown fur (1/16 mmDD + 2/16 mmDd)

d. mmdd: 1/16 Individuals with gray fur.

Explanation:

Provided data includes:

  • The dense pigment gene, D, corresponds to melanophilin.
  • The D allele is dominant over d.
  • The M/m gene determines pigment production.
  • M is dominant over m.
  • With D present, M/m is expressed.
  • With dd, M/m is not expressed.
  • DDMM, DdMM, DDMm, DdMm result in black fur.
  • DDmm, Ddmm lead to brown fur.
  • ddMM, ddMm yield light gray fur.

Cross: between two dihybrids

Parental: DdMm x DdMm

Phenotype: Black-furred x Black-furred

Gametes: DM, Dm, dM, dm; DM, Dm, dM, dm

Punnet Square: DM Dm dM dm

DM DDMM DDMm DdMM DdMm

Dm DDMm DDmm DdMm Ddmm

dM DdMM DdMm ddMM ddMm

dm DdMm Ddmm ddMm ddmm

F1: 9/16 Black-furred individuals, D-M- (1/16 DDMM + 2/16 DDMm + 2/16 DdMM + 4/16 DdMm)

3/16 Brown-furred individuals, D-mm (1/16 DDmm + 2/16 Ddmm)

4/16 Gray-furred individuals, dd-- (1/16 ddMM + 1/16 ddmm + 2/16 ddMm)
