In Some Plants, a True-Breeding, Red-Flowered Strain Gives All Pink

question 75

Essay

In some plants, a True-breeding, red-flowered strain gives all pink flowers when crossed with a white-flowered strain: CᴿCᴿ (red)× CᵂCᵂ (white)→ CᴿCᵂ (pink). If flower position (axial or terminal)is inherited as it is in peas (see Table 14.1 in your textbook), what will be the ratios of genotypes and phenotypes of the F₁ generation resulting from the following cross: axial-red (True-breeding)× terminal-white?
What will be the ratios in the F₂ generation?
