F1 and F2
The original generation for pea plants in Mendel's experiment is called the P generation, or parental generation. This generation consisted of the true-breeding plants that Mendel used to establish the traits he studied. The P generation was crossed to produce the F1 generation, which exhibited the traits inherited from the P generation.
The offspring of two individuals, P1, are known as the first filial generation, or F1 generation. They are the first generation produced from the crossing of the parental (P) generation.
The symbol for the parent generation is P.
