A homozygous recessive as male parent
homozygous
Homozygous recessive; if 'r' stands for color of the seed and 's' for normal starch, then the genotype of this plant used in a test cross will be ( rrss ).
Perform a test cross. Cross the organism with an organism with a homozygous recessive genotype and use the phenotypes of the offspring and a Punnett square to figure out the unknown genotype.
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous

A cross involving only one trait is a ? Cross
Homozygous recessive; if 'r' stands for color of the seed and 's' for normal starch, then the genotype of this plant used in a test cross will be ( rrss ).
to determine the unknown genotype.
Test Cross.
A test cross.
Perform a test cross. Cross the organism with an organism with a homozygous recessive genotype and use the phenotypes of the offspring and a Punnett square to figure out the unknown genotype.
this procedure is generally called a test cross and is used in the agricultural and pet industries lots.
Gregor Mendel devised the fundamental tool of the test cross. It is an experimental cross of an individual organism of dominant phenotype but unknown genotype and an organism with a homozygous recessive genotype .
A cross between a homozygous recessive and an individual of unknown genotype is called a test cross.The homozygous recessive can only pass on a recessive allele to the offspring, and so any recessive in the other parent will show up in the phenotype (detectable characteristics) of some of the offspring.
Try using a Punnett Square.
If an individual is of the dominant phenotype, its genotype can be either AA or Aa (letter A picked for demonstration's sake). To do a good test cross, we have to be able to unambiguously tell which one of the genotypes the individual is. The best test cross would be conducted with a homozygous recessive (aa) individual. This way, if the cross generates 100% dominant phenotype, then the original individual was homozygous dominant. If the cross generates 50% dominant and 50% recessive phenotype, then the original individual was heterozygous.
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous
n genetics, a test cross, first introduced by Gregor Mendel, is used to determine if an individual exhibiting a dominant trait is homozygous or heterozygous for that trait. More simply put, test crosses determine the genotype of an individual with a dominant phenotype.
