If you mean one allele for short stems, then it would probably be something similar to Ss, where S is a tall stem allele and s is a short stem allele. The letters chosen to represent the alleles are not universally agreed on (there are far too many genes, let alone alleles, to name with only letters), so they are specified in each case by the geneticist. Also, make sure that the letters match each trait - s and S are the same letter for the same trait, the stems. For color, you would use another pair - say perhaps C for green peas, c for yellow peas, et cetera.

∙ 12y agoHaving one allele for tall stems and one allele for short stems is a heterozygous genotype and could be represented as Tt, where T represents the tall allele, and t represents the short allele, if the tall allele has complete dominance over the short allele.
Wiki User

Explain segregation of alleles using pea plants?
if the pea plant has 2 recessive alleles then the plant is gonna come out short.but if it has 1 recessive and one dominant allele then the plant turns out tall, because the dominant allele can be present without the recessive allele.
What does an alleles for a hybrid tall pea represent?
Its sophia
You perform a test cross on a tall pea plant half the offspring are short what conclusion can you draw from this outcome?
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
What happened in Mendels experiments when a pea plant received two different alleles for the same traits?
When Mendel crossed a true-breeding short plant with a true-breeding tall plant, all the offspring were tall. Which term describes the gene for tallness?
What happens in Mendel's experiments when a pea plant 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.
How dominant or recessive alleles for the trait of stem height determine whether a pea plant will be tall or short?
The dominant trait for height in a pea plant is tall (TT or Tt). The only instance in which a pea plant will be short is if it carries both recessive alleles (tt).

How might a geneticist write the alleles to show that tall pea plant has one allele for tall stems and one allele for short stems?
Tt :)

What is the combination of alleles in purebred short pea plants?
Two alleles for tall stems.
You perform a test cross on a tall pea plant half the offspring are short what conclusion can you draw from this outcome?
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
What genotype is a tall pea plant?
A tall looking pea plant can have a genotype of Tt or TT.
How do dominant and recessive alleles affect an offsprings phenotype?
The traits inherited depends upon the alleles that have been passed on from the father and mother.The traits that are exhibited is called as the phenotype. Dominant allele needs only one copy to be expressed.For example in a pea plant "T" represents the tall dominant allele and "t" the short recessive allele .TT - when there are two dominant alleles the pea plant will express the tall trait. The pea plant is tall.Tt - when there is one dominant and one recessive allele the pea plant will still express the tall trait.In this case the dominant allele masks the recessive allele and the pea plant is still tall.tt - when there are two recessive alleles the pea plant will express the recessive trait and the pea plant is short.For a recessive trait to show up there should be a pair of recessive alleles.
What is the genotype for a homozygous tall plant?
For example, if the tall plant stand for T, the genotypes are: TT tt
