Additive effects of pym and rfi mutations on trichome nuclear DNA content
Other deviations from Mendelian ratios give us information
Increase in trichome branching and endoreduplication
These two genes act in a switch pathway bc they have both positive and negative
indicators
They act in a linear pathway where one is upstream of the other… if this was the case, the
double mutant would be like one of the single mutants
If it's the other pathway, additive phenotype
9:6:1, the genes aren't functioning in a linear pathway, instead acting to converge
together on an end phenotype so that the phenotype we're seeing is additive
Mutations in a gene called C.. When you have loss of function mutations in C you get white
phenotype
When you have loss of function in P you get a white phenotype
The phenotype of the double mutant is white
