Possible offspring alleles
the Punnett square
Geneticists use the Punnett square to predict the outcome of a particular breeding experiment. They predict the potential genotypes of the offspring of two parents with known genotypes.
A Punnett Square is a helpful device for predicting the proportions of possible genotypes

The diagram is called a Punnett square. It is a tool used by geneticists to predict the possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring resulting from a test cross between individuals with known genotypes.

In genetics a type of grid is used to show the gametes of each parent and their possible offspring and also called the checkerboard is used. The Punnet Square is named after Reginald Crundall Punnett an English geneticist.
No, Gregor Mendel did not invent the Punnett square. The Punnett square was actually developed by Reginald Punnett, an English geneticist, in 1905. Mendel's work laid the foundation for understanding inheritance patterns that the Punnett square helps illustrate.
