a plant contains the alleles gg for green pod color. it is crossed with a plant that has the alleles gg for yellow pod color. the offspring have green pods. what is the allele combination?
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Determine possible gametes
The first plant with Gg can produce G and g gametes. The second plant with gg can only produce g gametes.
Step2: Use Punnett - square logic
When we cross them, the possible combinations are Gg and gg. Since the offspring have green pods and green is dominant (G), the allele combination must be Gg.
Answer:
Gg
