Genotype & Phenotype in Flowers Genotype of alleles: R = red flower r = yellow flower All genes occur in pairs, so 2 alleles affect a characteristic Possible combinations are: Genotypes RR R r rr Phenotypes RED RED YELLOW copyright cmassengale

Mendel’s Experimental Results copyright cmassengale

[object Object],The theoretical or expected ratio of plants producing round or wrinkled seeds is 3 round :1 wrinkled Mendel’s observed ratio was 2.96:1 The discrepancy is due to statistical error The larger the sample the more nearly the results approximate to the theoretical ratio copyright cmassengale

Law of Dominance In a cross of parents that are pure for contrasting traits , only one form of the trait will appear in the next generation. All the offspring will be heterozygous and express only the dominant trait. RR x rr yields all Rr (round seeds) copyright cmassengale
