A horticulturist has a purple plant and a white plant. The horticulturist knows that purple is dominant over white. When they are bred, all of the resulting offspring are purple. What is the most likely genotype of the parent or original purple plant?

Many of the color varieties of summer squash are determined by two different interacting genes A and B: AA or Aa gives white colored squash, aaBB or aaBb gives yellow squash, and aabb produces green squash. A plant producing white squash is self-crossed. Three fourths of the offspring produces white squash; one fourth produces green squash. What is the genotype of the parent plant producing white squash?
A tall pea plant with axial flowers was crossed to a dwarf plantwith terminal flowers. Tallness and axial flowers are dominanttraits. The following offspring were obtained: 27 tall, axial flowers;23 tall, terminal flowers; 28 dwarf, axial flowers; and 25 dwarf,terminal flowers. What are the genotypes of the parents?
If an incompletely dominant red-flowered plant is crossed with an incompletely dominant white-flowered plant, what are the genotypes and phenotypes of the plant F1 generation? What genotypes and phenotypes will be produced in the F2 generation?
A pea plant is heterozygous for both pod shape and color. I is the allele for dominant, inflated pod; i is the allele for recessive, constricted pod. G is the allele for dominant, green pod; g is the allele for recessive, yellow color characteristic. Suppose this plant is crossed with a homozygous pea with inflated, green pod, what will be the possible genotype of the offspring?

If a plant is tall, has round seeds and purple flowers, with the genotype of TTRREE is crossed with a plant that is short and has wrinkle seeds and white flowers with the genotype ttrree. What would be the offspring of their F1 generation and F2 generation like? Form a Punnett square and write the phenotypic ratio?
If a homozygous tall stem (AA) plant is crossed with a homozygous dwarf stem (aa), knowing that the tall stem is dominant over the dwarf stem, what will the genotypes and phenotypes of F1 and F2 be like?
You identify a gene that determines the size of the pods of a pea plant. To study the phenotype associated with this trait, you cross a plant that is homozygous for the “long pod” allele with a pea plant that is homozygote for “short pod” allele. When measuring the length of the pods of the parents and resulting offspring, you obtain the following data: Plant Length (cm) Homozygous (“Wide” allele) 15 cm Homozygous (“Short” allele) 4 cm Resulting cross breed 9 cm What can you conclude about this phenotype/trait? Long and short alleles are codominant Wide allele shows incomplete dominance over the short allele Wide allele shows complete dominance over the short allele Short allele shows complete dominance over the long allele The wide and short genes are linked
