Dihybrid inheritance Flashcards
What is dihybrid inheritance?
inheritance of two characteristics that are controlled by separate genes e.g. T = Tall and t = dwarf
R = Red and r = yellow
What would the parent 1 genotype and gametes be ?
TTRR - genotype
TR TR TR TR - gametes
What would parent 2’s genotype and gametes be?
tt rr = genotype
tr tr tr tr - gametes
What is the f1 generation?
100% herterozygotes
genotypes - TtRr
phenotypes - tall and red
What is the f2 generation?
Parent 1 - TtRr - geno type
Parent 2 - Tt Rr - geno type
parent 1 and 2 = TR Tr tR tr - gametes
What is the f2 phenotype?
tall and red (TTRR, TTRr, TtRR, TtRr)
Tall and yellow (TTrr, Ttrr)
Dwarf and Red (ttRR, ttRr)
Dwarf and Yellow (ttrr)
