In order to obtain the `F_(1)`-generation Mendel pollinated a pure-breeding tall plant with a pure-breeding dwarf plant. But for getting the `F_(2)`-generatin, he simply self-pollinated the tall `F_(1)` plants. Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For raising `F_(2)` generation ,Mendel simply self pollinated the tall `F_(1)` plants with heteroztgous genotype (Tt) to segregate the two traits.
