question 46

Multiple Choice

In a particular plant, leaf colour is controlled by gene locus D. Plants with at least one allele D have dark green leaves, and plants with the homozygous recessive dd genotype have light green leaves. A true-breeding, dark-leafed plant is crossed with a light-leafed one, and the F₁ offspring is allowed to self-pollinate. The predicted outcome of the F₂ is diagrammed in the Punnett square shown in the figure, where 1, 2, 3 and 4 represent the genotypes corresponding to each box within the square.

• A) 1 and 4 only
• B) 2 and 3 only
• C) 1, 2, 3 and 4
