Yellow pods are a recessive trait and for this type of trait to show in the phenotype, both alleles have to be recessive. If there was a recessive allele (yellow) and a dominant allele(green) as it shows in hybrid pods, then the dominant allele would be the one shown and the pod would be green.

Yellow color is a recessive gene, and green is dominant. Dominant genes will always show over recessive genes. A recessive gene only shows when there is no dominant present. Therefore, it cannot be a hybrid.

How are hybrid seeds harvested?

Hybrid seeds are harvested like any other. It's how they're polinated and grown that is different. The company has to ensure that the 2 "parents" are the right 2 parents. The mother plant is obvious, but they have to ensure that polination happens with the right father plant. Different plants have different methods for accomplishing this. To harvest the seeds, you basically have to wait until the seed pods dry out and "die". You then remove the pods, and pull the seeds out.
