प्रश्न
How would you find out whether a given tall garden pea plant is homozygous or heterzygous? Substantiate your answer with the help fo Punnett squares.
उत्तर
Test cross helps to find out whether the given tall garden pea plant is homozygous or heterzygous.
When a progeny of F1, is crossed with the homozygous recessive parent, it is called test Cross.
Test cross between pure dominant (A) and hybrid dominant (B) individuals with recessive parent is shown below :
Such a cross is useful to determine the genotype of an unknown trait, i.e., whether it is heterozygous or homozygous dominant for the trait.

Pure-bred tall pea plants are first crossed with pure-bred dwarf pea plants. The pea plants obtained in the F1 generation are then selfed to produce F2 generation of pea plants.

When a tall plant with rounded seeds (TTRR) is grossed with a Dwarf plant with wrinkled seeds (ttrr) the F1 generation consists of tall plants with rounded seeds. How many types of gametes the F1 plant would produce?
In a monohybrid cross of plants with red and white flowered plants, Mendel got only red-flowered plants. On self-pollinating these F1 plants got both red and white flowered plants in 3:1 ratio. Explain the basis of using RR and rr symbols to represent the genotype of plants of parental generation.
In a plant tallness 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 with each other?
