In his experiment, Mendel took tall and short pea plants. On cross-pollination, he got all tall plants for the F1 generation. Showing when tall and short genes combine, the tall always expresses itself (i.e. tall is dominant). Then he self-pollinated the F1 generation, from which he got tall and short plants in the ratio of 3:1, showing that the short gene is only expressed when short genes combine. Thus, he concluded that ‘tall’ traits were dominant while the ‘short’ traits were recessive.
