The relationship between a nuclear restorer gene and the nuclear gene for male sterility in Petunia

Abstract:
This paper describes the relationship between the restorer gene and the gene for male sterility in the background of normal cytoplasm. We combined these two traits by crosses in one plant, thus making genetic analysis possible. Two main conclusions can be drawn: 1. The restorer gene and the gene for male sterility are located at different loci which segregate independently one from the other. 2. The Rf allele does not affect the expression of the e allele.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...
