In a plant tallenss is dominant over dwarfness and red flower is dominant over white. Starting with the parents work out a dihybrid cross. What is standard dihybrid ratio? Do you think the values would deviate if the two genes in question are interacting wiht each other?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Refer topic Dihybrid cross of Mendel i.e. .Law of independent assortment. for `9:3:3:1` ratio
Values will deviate if genes interacted with each other e.g. ratio may come 9:7,9:3:4,15:1,13:3 etc.
