So far, we have set up Punnett squares to solve monohybrid crosses, where one trait was involved. Dihybrid crosses are crosses where two different traits (pairs of alleles) are involved.There is a mutant C. elegans that rolls around on the plates. This mutation is called roller (rol-2) and is denoted by r. It is recessive to wild-type (R). There is another mutant C. elegans that is short and fat. This mutation is called dumpy (dpy- 5) and is denoted by d. It is recessive to wild-type (D). You want to create a worm that is both dumpy and a roller. The problem is that male rollers and hermaphrodite dumpies cannot mate because the males cannot catch up with the hermaphrodites. However, you can cross a hermaphrodite roller to a wild-type male and a hermaphrodite dumpy to a wild-type male to make heterozygous offspring.What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the F1 progeny for the following cross? Cross 1Parents: ddRR hermaphrodite X DDRR maleA. Genotypes: 1:2:1 DDRR: DdRR: ddRR; Phenotypes: 3:1 wild-type: dumpy non-roller
