In a Punnett square a capital letter stands for a allele.?
Capital letters on Punnett Squares represent dominant genes, while lowercase letters represent recessive genes. For example, if the trait "T" is a tall gene and the trait "t" is a short gene. When you get your results (if both parents are heterozygous for tallness, Tt) you get four possible results, 1 TT (homozygous tall), 2 Tt (twice, heterozygous tall Tt), and 1 tt (homozygous short). If there is a dominant gene there, that gene will be displayed. Only if there are two recessive genes will the recessive trait be displayed.

Normally a dominant allele is represented by a capital letter. It can be any letter used. Example; Brown hair is dominant and blond is recessive. B represents the dominant allele (brown) and b represents the recessive (blond) in Bb. You can have any combination of two alleles; BB, Bb, or bb. BB would have brown hair, Bb would have brown hair or a mix, and bb would have blond hair. Instead of B we could have used T or any other letter.
