What is the expected percentage of F2 progeny with yellow and inflated pod in dihybrid cross experiment involving pea plants with green coloured, inflated pod and yellow coloured constricted pod?
- A9%
- B100%
- C56.25%
- D18.75%
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
(G) Green pod colour is dominant over yellow pod colour (g)
(I) Inflated pod is dominant over constricted pod (i)
Expected percentage of F2 progeny with yellow – inflated pod in this cross is
$${1 \over 4} \times {3 \over 4} \times 100 = 18.75\% $$
