Question

crossed with purebreeding short plants with green fruit. The F1 were found to be tall plants with red fruit. There is only one locus controlling size and one locus controlling fruit colour and they are independently assorting. All the following are true except: O 50% of the F2 generation will contain at least one 'red' allele. % of the F2 generation will be red O 50% of the F1 gametes will contain a 'tall' allele. O The F1 generation are heterozygous for the alleles controlling size Two 'green' alleles are required to show the green phenotype.

Explanation / Answer

Ans- 3/4 of the F2 generation will be red.

As observed from the dihybrid cross where pure breeding tall plants with red fruit were crossed with pure breeding short plants with green fruit.
