In pea plants, tall (T) is dominant over short (t). What is the genotypic and phenotypic ratio of the offspring resulting in a cross between a Tt and a Tt plant?
Genotypic Ratio _________ Phenotypic Ratio ___________
(TT:Tt:tt) (TT + Tt) : tt
In pea plants, tall (T) is dominant over short (t). What are the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous tall pea plant and a short pea plant?
Genotype____________ Phenotype___________
Genotypic Ratio _________ Phenotypic Ratio ___________
Solution
1). Cross between Tt and Tt will have the progeny with the following genotypes and phenotypes:
Tt* Tt ----> TT(1/4, tall), Tt (1/2, tall), tt (1/4, short)
Thus, the genotypic ratio of TT:Tt:tt is = 1:2:1
The phenotypic ratio (tall:short) is, 3:1.
