1 Test 6 March 6, 2009 Matching 2pts each: Indicate which term/concept in the table on the right best fills in the BLANK in each of the statements by placing the LETTER representing each term/concept in the blank in the sentence. Please note : There is one best tennlconcept for each BLANK.. <2 ro CrA,C 0 1. All four products of meiosis in Neurospora crassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae are contained in an ---B-. 2. A ~ is predicted to form by the double strand break and repair model but not by the Holiday model. 3. A four-strand double crossover between the genes A and B in yeast results in formation of a /v\. 4. A single crossover between the genes A and B in yeast results in formation of a L. 5. In order to crossisg two yeast strains, they must be ofopposite ~. \\\~ 6..JH. diploid that is formed when two yeast cells mate is called the T. 7. A two strand double crossover between the genes A and B in mold results in formation of a ~. 8. In the double strand break and repair model for recombination, two ~ form. A Ascospore B Ascus C Displacement loop (D-Ioop) D Double-strand break and repair model E First-division segregation F Gene conversion G Heterodup1ex H Holiday [unctions I Holiday junction resolving enzymes J Holiday Models K Mating type L Mismatch repair M lnonparental-ditype (NPD) tetrad N Ordered Tetrads 0 Parental-ditype (PD) tetrad p Random spore analysis Q R S T Second-division segregation Tetratype (TT) tetrad Unordered Tetrad Zygote 9. ~ ofthe heteroduplex fanned by recombination can result in gene conversion. 10. In the Neurospora crassa cross A x a, if one crossover occurs between the gene and the centromere, then you would observe -R- ofa and a. 3

2 Test 6 March 6, You are trying to determine whether there is any evidence for linkage between the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes, A, B, and C. You perform the cross Abc x abc and analyze 390 asci.

4 Test 6 March 6, (10 Points) The drawing for this question shows two yeast non-sister chromatids. The top drawing is before any -'crossovers occur. The bottom drawing is based on the Holiday model for recombination and shows the chromatids joined by a crossover. The other two non-sister chromatids of these chromosomes are not shown, The top chromatid (black and blue) has the A, B, and D alleles. The bottom chromatid (red and green) has the a, b, and d alleles. The cross, A B D x a b d was done. Among 200 asci, one unusual ascus was found. The spores in this ascus had the following genotypes: A B D; A b d; a b D; a b d I (?f"~ CZA-Ci.4-..
