the narrow sense heritability for potato weight in a starting population of pota

Question

the narrow sense heritability for potato weight in a starting population of potatoes is 0.42 and the mean weight is 1.4 pounds. if a breeder crosses plants with average potato weight of 1.9 and 2.1 pounds, respectively what is the predicted weight if potatoes in the offspring the narrow sense heritability for potato weight in a starting population of potatoes is 0.42 and the mean weight is 1.4 pounds. if a breeder crosses plants with average potato weight of 1.9 and 2.1 pounds, respectively what is the predicted weight if potatoes in the offspring the narrow sense heritability for potato weight in a starting population of potatoes is 0.42 and the mean weight is 1.4 pounds. if a breeder crosses plants with average potato weight of 1.9 and 2.1 pounds, respectively what is the predicted weight if potatoes in the offspring

Explanation / Answer

0.42 = R/S =(X - 1.4) / (2 - 1.4)

solving for X gives a value of 1.652 pounds.
