Do a testcross with a homozygous recessive plant.
two recessive alleles gg
All of the offspring will be red, since each of the four offspring receive the dominant red allele (R). Therefore, the offspring will all have the genotype Rr and a phenotype of red.
A cross between a plant of unknown genotype and one that is known to be homozygous recessive is called a test cross because the recessive homozygote testswhether there are any recessive alleles in the unknown. Because the recessive homozygote will contribute an allele for the recessive characteristic to each offspring, the second allele (from the unknown genotype) will determine the offspring's phenotype.
The reason why short plants reappeared in Mendel's F2 generation of pea plants was because their short trait was heterozygous. Both parents carriedÊthat recessive gene, so they passed it on to their offspring.
The genotype of the tall pea plant is heterozygous!
