bescribe the incomplete dominance in snapdragon plant with schematic representation
Answers
Answer:
Snapdragon flower shows incomplete dominance means none of the trait shows its complete dominance over the other. Both traits show equal dominance over each other ie both traits express their characters to produce an intermediate trait.
Cross a red flower RR with a white flower ww
you will find that in F2 generation that the flowers produced are pink in colour Rw
The ratio of their genotype is 1:2:1 ie 1 red flower, 2 pink flowers and ,1 white flower.
Make a monohybrid cross
RR. ww
/. /
R. w
R. w
R. RR. Rw
w. Rw. ww
this is incomplete dominance as two pink flowers and produced with Rw genotype
this shoes that dominance is incomplete
as both flowers are expressing their traits equally on each other.
