More true breeding white flowered plants. If the gene combination for white is WW and is dominant a cross of WW x WW would result in 100% WW (white flowered plants)

It would look like this. --¦ W W -------------- w¦ Ww Ww w¦ Ww Ww All the offspring would be black-furred, all carrying one dominant gene and one recessive.
The genotypes produced from a cross between Ww and Ww would be: WW Ww Ww ww -The cross between these two genotypes would produce gametes with genotypes in a 1:2:1 ratio.
According to Mendelian genetics, if the male is heterozygous for the widows peak trait (Ww) and the female has a straight hairline (ww), 50% of their children are expected to have a widows peak (Ww) and the remaining 50% of their children are expected to have a straight hairline (ww).

Usually, the parent flies will have a different genotype to the F1 generation (their offspring). For example, if the parents had WW (black eyes) and ww (white eyes), their offspring would all have Ww (black eyes). If you were experimenting further, you would want the F1 generation to cross - with Ww X Ww. If you did not remove the parental generation, you could have crosses between them and the F1 generation, which would result in different genotypes. If the parents were not removed, you could have the following crosses: Ww X WW Ww X ww WW X ww Ww X Ww The only cross that you would desire in the experiment would be F1 X F1 (Ww X Ww), which would give you the desired genotypes for the F2 generation.
