Biology Question on Principles of Inheritance and Variation
During incomplete dominance, F2− generation will have
A
3:1 genotypic ratio
B
3:1 phenotypic ratio
C
1:2:1 genotypic ratio
D
1:2:1 phenotypic ratio
Answer
1:2:1 phenotypic ratio
Explanation
Solution
Incomplete dominance the genes of an allelomorphic pair are not expressed as recessive and dominant and is expressed themselves partially, e.g., plant like Antirrhinum, when the hybrid of F1, progeny are crossed among themselves to raise F2− generation, they produce a phenotypic ratio of 1:2:1, which is identical to genotypic ratio because heterogygote are phenotypically intermediate between homozygous types,
