How did Mendel find out whether the recessive alleles were still present in the f plants?

he breeded the f1 plants with a recessive homozygous plant and if the offspring (f2) showed the recessive allele, then the recessive allele is still present in the f1 plant

∙ 13y agoTo answer this question, he allowed all seven (7) kinds of F1 hybrid plants to produce an F2 generation by self-pollination. In effect, he crossed the F1 generation with itself to produce the F2 offspring.

∙ 13y agohow could you find out if the recessive allele is still present in the f1 generation?
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoAn f2 cross.
A = dominamt
a = recessive
Aa X Aa
And the recessive homozygous alleles, aa, show up again 1/4 of the time.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoHe crossbred the plants for several generations. In subsequent generations if the recessive gene becomes noticeable then that shows they were still in the parent plant.

∙ 6y agoMendel crossed the F1 generation plant with a plant that is homozygous recessive to find out if the recessive alleles are still present in the F plants.

In Mendel's experiment why did wrinkled seeds show up in the F2 generation even though they were not present in the F1 generation?
Wrinkled seeds are recessive The F1generation carried recessive alleles.
In Mendel's experiment why did traits show up in the f1 generation that were not present in the f1 generation?
the traits were recessive
What happened in mendels experiments when a pea received two different alleles for the same trait?
Unless the alleles are codominate (which Mendel did not have in pea plants), one will be dominate and will be what you see (phenotype) and one will be recessive and you will not see it.
What was the dominant alleles in Mendel's pea plants?
Gregor Mendel called them factors, or traits.
True or False In heterozygous individuals only the recessive allele is expressed?
In heterozygous individuals, only the dominant allele is expressed. The recessive allele is present, but not expressed
How did Mendel find out whether the recessive alleles were still present in the F1 plants?
he breeded the f1 plants with a recessive homozygous plant and if the offspring (f2) showed the recessive allele, then the recessive allele is still present in the f1 plant
How did mendel find out whether the recessive allele were still present in the f1 plants?
he breeded the f1 plants with a recessive homozygous plant and if the offspring (f2) showed the recessive allele, then the recessive allele is still present in the f1 plant
What are the states that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive?
Mendel's law of inheritance.
In Mendel's experiment why did wrinkled seeds show up in the F2 generation even though they were not present in the F1 generation?
Wrinkled seeds are recessive The F1generation carried recessive alleles.

What are some important discoveries in genetics?
Mendel figured out about dominant and recessive alleles, and Punnet found out about inheritance patterns.
How did gregor Mendel become famous?
He discovered dominant and recessive alleles. He also bread and tested 29,000 pea plants
What is Gregor Mendel contribution?
He paved the road to the study of heredity or inheritance. He discovered how inheritance occurs and how traits are expressed through alleles and he proposed the idea of dominant and recessive alleles.
In Mendel's experiment why did traits show up in the f1 generation that were not present in the f1 generation?
the traits were recessive
