In pea plants, tall (T) is dominant and short (t) is recessive. A heterozygous tall plant is crossed with a short plant. What is the expected phenotypic ratio? all offspring will be tall 3:1 1:2:1 9:3:3:1 1:1 all offspring will be short
Maitreya E.
A plant that is homozygous dominant for the tall trait is crossed with a plant that is heterozygous for the tall trait. What are the expected genotypic and phenotypic ratios of the offspring? Genotype—50% TT : 50% Tt; Phenotype—100% tall Genotype—50% TT : 50% Tt; Phenotype—50% tall : 50% short Genotype—75% TT : 25% Tt; Phenotype—100% tall Genotype—75% TT : 25% Tt; Phenotype—50% tall : 50% short
