Mendel crossed true-breeding varieties of peas to establish a clear baseline for his experiments, ensuring that any observed traits in the offspring could be attributed to specific genetic factors rather than environmental influences or genetic variation. By starting with true-breeding plants, he ensured that the parental traits were consistent and predictable, allowing him to accurately analyze the inheritance patterns in subsequent generations. This foundational approach enabled him to formulate the basic principles of inheritance, such as dominant and recessive traits.
P1 or parental
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 P1 generation represents the parental generation in a breeding experiment. It consists of the original individuals that are crossed to produce the first generation of offspring, known as the F1 generation.

The parental generation is denoted as the P1 generation. This means that it started the experiment.

In a breeding experiment, we observed that the flower color of the offspring displayed incomplete dominance, with the heterozygous individuals showing a blending of the two parental colors rather than one dominant color.
In genetics, in a pure-breeding population, the parental generation is the P1 generation. The off-spring of the P1 Generation is called the F1 Generation
