Question

A pea plant heterozygous for pod shape and

flower colour was selfed and total 512 seeds

were obtained. What will be the total number of

seeds with inflated pod and white coloured

flowers?​

Answer 1

Answer:

I think the answer should be 128 seeds.

Answer 2

Answer:

96 seeds are with inflated pod and white coloured

Explanation:

The genotype of offspring produced after selfing of heterozygous plant with inflated pod and white colored flowers  is 9:3:3:1 .Where 3 represent the ratio of offspring with both heterozygous genotype for traits.

         

Total seeds = 512

Total number of seeds with inflated pod and white coloured flowers

= $\frac{3}{16}$ × 512

=  96 seeds are with inflated pod and white coloured
