Question

In garden pea (Pisum sativum), a plant with red flowers was crossed with a plant with white flowers. Work out the possible genotypes and phenotypes of F₁ and F₂ generations. State any one of Mendel’s law that could be derived from this cross.

Answer 1

In f1 generation they will get all red flowers as they are dominant traits and are expressed
When f1 generation is self pollinated they will get 3 red flowers and 1 white flower
Phenotypic ratio-3:1
Genotypes ratio-1:2:1

Answer 2

The genotype ratio is 1:2:1
i.e homozygous red and heterozygous red and homozygous whit
