When pea plants showing pair of two different characteristics are bred with each other.
`{:("Characters","Different characteristics"),("1. Height of Plant","Tall and short"),("2. Shape of seed","Round and wrinkled"):}`
Answer the following questions :
What happens when `F_(1)` progeny are used to generate `F_(2)` progeny by self-pollination ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A Mendelian experiment shows that in `F_(2)` progeny some were tall plants with round seeds and some were short plants with wrinkled seeds.
However, there would be some `F_(2)` progeny that showed new combinations such as tall with wrinkled seeds and short with round seeds.
