Dear student
If two pairs of contrasting characters are involved, then the cross is termed as dihybrid cross
Inheritance of Two Genes (Dihybrid Cross)
-
In dihybrid cross, we consider two characters. (e.g., seed colour and seed shape)
-
Yellow colour and round shape is dominant over green colour and wrinkled shape.
Phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1
Round yellow 9
Round green 3
Wrinkled yellow 3
Wrinkled green 1
1. Parents (P1) have phenotype as Round yellow and wrinkled green. Thus probability of F2 generation having same phenotype is 10:16.
2. F1 parents have phenotype as Round yellow. So probability of F2 generation having same phenotype is 9:16.
3. F1 generation have genotype as RrYy, so probability of F2 generation having same genotype is 4:16.
