A type of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) produces fruit in three possible colors: red, orange, and green. You cross a true-breeding red-fruited plant with a true-breeding green-fruited plant, and all the F1 offspring are red. You intercross the red F1s, and the resulting F2 generation consists of 61 red-, 13 orange-, and 6 green-fruited plants. a) Assign the phenotypes to a modified 9:3:3:1 ratio (do not just calculate the actual ratio of the phenotypes). Show your work.
