Researchers studying leaf shape in a plant found six independent recessive mutations resulting in serrated leaves. They found the following results of a complementation test, + denoting wt leaves in the progeny of crosses using pollen and ova from homozygotes for each mutation. (table is presented like this in the question) Table 1 Complementation analysis for 6 mutations 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 - + + + + + 2 - + + + + 3 - + + - 4 - + + 5 - + 6 - Based on the data in Table 1, how many genes were found to contribute to leaf shape? Group of answer choices A) 5 B) 4 C) 2 D) 1 E) 6

Mutants 1 and 2 are mutations in rllA: both are point mutations. Mutants 3 and 4 are two non-overlapping mutations in rIIB: 3 is a deletion mutation and 4 is a point mutation. Mutant 5 is a deletion that overlaps mutants 2 and 3 but does not overlap mutants 1 and 4. Mutant 5 will fail to complement with any of the other 4 mutants. Mutant 5 won't be able to recombine with any of the other 4 mutants and produce wild-type recombinants.
