A pea plant with purple flowers was crossed with white flowers producing 50 plants with only purple flowers . On selfing, these plants produced 482 plants with purple flowers and 162 with white flowers. What genetic mechanism accounts for these results ? Explain

In Mirabilis jalapa, when red flowered plants are crossed with white flowered ones, the offsprings were pink. It is the case of

If four o' clock plants, the gene for red flower colour (R) is incompletely dominant over the gene for white flower colour (r), hence the plants heterozygous for flower colour (Rr) have pink flower. What will be the ratio of offsprings in a cross between the red flowers and pink flowers ?

In a given plant , red colour ( R ) of fruits is dominant over white fruit ( r ) , and tallness ( T ) is dominant 35 . over dwarfness ( t ) . If a plant with genotype RRTt is crossed with a plant of genotype rrtt , what will be the percentage of tall plants with red fruits in the next generation ?

Two pea plants were subjected for cross pollination . Of the 183 plants produced in the next generation . 94 plants , were found to be tall and 89 plants were found to be dwarf.The genotypes of the two parental plants are likely to be :

In Mirabilis , a hybrid for red ( RR ) and white ( rr ) flower produces pink ( Rr ) flower . A plant with pink flower crossed with white flower , the expected phenotypic ratio is :

What will be the percentage of the tall plants with red flower in a cross between TTRr x ttrr, when T stands for tall dominant and R for red dominant ?

A cow with red coat is crossed with a bull having white coat. Their offspring produced in F_(1) generation showed roan coat. This effect is produced due to juxtaposition of small patches of red and white colour. What can be assumed about the gene controlling coat colour in cattle ?
