F2 generation
F2 generation
In Mendel's experiments, recessive traits were visible in the F2 generation. After crossing two purebred plants (P generation), the F1 generation exhibited only the dominant traits. However, when the F1 plants were self-pollinated, the F2 generation displayed a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits, revealing the recessive traits in a subset of the plants.

In Mendel's experiments, recessive traits were visible in the F2 generation. After crossing two purebred plants (P generation), the first filial generation (F1) displayed only the dominant traits. However, when the F1 plants were self-pollinated, the recessive traits reappeared in approximately 25% of the F2 generation.

In Mendel's experiments, recessive traits became visible in the F2 generation. Initially, in the F1 generation, only dominant traits were expressed, but when the F1 plants were self-fertilized, the recessive traits reappeared in approximately 25% of the offspring in the F2 generation. This observation led Mendel to formulate his principles of inheritance.
