Question

If a pea plant produces 50% of the pollen grains with genotype RY, then the possible genotype of that
plant can be​

Answer 1

Answer:

With all of the seven pea plant traits that Mendel examined, one form appeared dominant over the other, which is to say it masked the presence of the other allele. For example, when the genotype for pea seed color is YG (heterozygous), the phenotype is yellow.

Answer 2

Answer:

RRYy or RrYY are two potential genotypes for the plant.

Explanation:

According to the given question, we know that the RY genotype is present in 50% of the pollen grain.

Because 50% of gametes have the RY genotype, executing the Mendel's cross indicates that the plant's genotype might be RrYY or RRYy in order to create 50% gametes with RY genes.

    RRYy                  RrYY

       ↓                         ↓

RY Ry RY Ry      RY rY rY RY

        ↓                       ↓

  50% RY             50% RY

As a result, if a pea plant produces 50% pollen grains with genotype RY, the plant's genotypes are either RRYy or RrYY.
