From interpretations of Mendelian experiments, it can be concluded that both parents contribute equally to the DNA of progeny during sexual reproduction. If both parents can help to determine the trait in the progeny, both parents must be contributing a copy of the same gene. This means that each pea plant must have two sets of all genes, one inherited from each parent. Male and female parents contribute equally in the progeny.
