Chapter 1. Chapter 3 Online Worked Problem: Statistics and Probability

1.1 Problem Statement

Individuals with the following genotypes are crossed: Aa Bb Cc Dd x Aa Bb Cc Dd. Alleles of these four genes/loci assort independently of one another. Give the proportion of the progeny of this cross that are expected to have each of the following genotypes:

a) Aa Bb Cc Dd
b) aa bb cc dd
c) Aa Bb cc Dd

For help with this problem:

  1. Review Predicting the Outcomes of Genetic Crosses on Pages 53-57 of Section 3.2 and Applying Probability and the Branch Diagram on Pages 61-62 in Section 3.3.
  2. Review Figures 3.12 and 3.13 on Pages 61-62.

It is always good practice to first define any unfamiliar terms. Next, you’ll need to identify the question that is being asked and figure out what information is available to help you answer the question. Before performing calculations, it is best to choose a problem-solving approach. In problems that ask for combined probabilities, you’ll need to calculate individual probabilities first and then use the multiplication rule with those individual probabilities to calculate the combined probabilities.

Do you understand all the terms used in the question? What question is being asked? What would you do next after figuring out these first two steps? For the last two steps, which needs to be calculated before the other: individual probabilities or combined probabilities?

1.2 Step 1: Define terms you may not know or understand.

Consider the type of cross that is involved in this problem. It is not a monohybrid or dihybrid cross, so some problem-solving approaches will not be practical. Next, determine whether you should use the multiplication rule or the addition rule to calculate the requested combined genotypic frequencies. Finally, determine if you need to test whether the expected and observed values are statistically significantly different using a chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

1.6 Step 5: For each of the four loci, calculate the probabilities of each possible genotype among the progeny.

Because this part of the problem is a simple monohybrid cross, you can draw a small Punnett square to calculate the probabilities for this locus alone.
