Question

if a pea plant produces 50% pollen grains with genotype RY then possible genotype of that plant is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ry, ry, RY,rY

hope it will help you!

Answer 2

The possible genotypes of the plant will either be RRYy or RrYY

• According to the given question, we know that 50% of the pollen grain, that is, 50% of the gametes has an RY genotype.
• Pollen grains are haploid, (have n number of chromosomes) and have half the number of chromosomes.

• Since 50% of gametes have RY genotype performing the Mendels cross tells us that the genotype of the plant could either be RrYY or RRYy to be able to produce 50% gametes with RY genes.

Thus, if a pea plant produces 50% pollen grains with genotype RY then the possible genotypes of that plant are either RRYy or RrYY.
