Mendel created the F1 generation for his experiments by cross-pollinating purebred pea plants with contrasting traits, such as tall versus short or smooth versus wrinkled seeds. He carefully controlled the breeding process by transferring pollen from the male parts of one flower to the female parts of another. This intentional crossbreeding resulted in the first filial generation, or F1 generation, which exhibited traits that were a blend of the parental characteristics. Mendel observed that the dominant traits in the F1 generation masked the recessive traits, setting the stage for his later studies on inheritance.
he crossed two pure lines
Mendel's F1 generation plants showed only one of the two traits present in the parental generation. This indicated that the trait expressed in the F1 generation was dominant, while the other trait was recessive.
Mendels' f2 generation produce a 3:1 ratio of tall plants. By crossing true tall with true short , homologous chromosomes, he wound up with three types of plants, true tall, true short, and tall with a short allele.
Mendel referred to the first two individuals in a genetic cross as the "P generation," which stands for the parental generation. The offspring produced from this generation are called the "F1 generation," or first filial generation. Mendel conducted his experiments with these generations to study the inheritance of traits in pea plants.
Mendel referred to the characteristic expressed in the hybrid F1 generation as the dominant trait. This trait masks the expression of the recessive allele in the heterozygous individual.
he crossed two pure lines
Mendel used the term "dominant" to describe a trait that emerged in the F1 generation.
Mendel's F1 generation plants showed only one of the two traits present in the parental generation. This indicated that the trait expressed in the F1 generation was dominant, while the other trait was recessive.
The phenotype of the F1 generation was all tall.

it showed him a new different generation of offspring. :D
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.
(Apex Learning) The F1 generation carried recessive alleles.

Gregor Mendel referred to the generation resulting from crossbreeding the parental generation as the "first filial generation," symbolized as F1.
