Monohybrid - A genetic cross made to examine the distribution of one specific set of alleles in the resulting offspring
Example: tall peas x short peas or TT x tt
Dihybrid - Hybridization using two traits with two alleles each.
Example: tall peas with round seeds x short peas with wrinkled seeds or TTRR x ttrr
The seeds collected from the first generation of monohybrids are called F1 seeds. These seeds are the product of crossing two different true-breeding parent plants.
In the F2 generation of monohybrids, the recessive trait can reappear in a ratio of 3:1 along with the dominant trait. This is because recessive traits can be masked in the F1 generation but resurface in the F2 generation due to genetic segregation.
A punnet square is a diagram showing the gene combination that might result from a genetic cross and it can be bigger than 2x2A diagram that is used to predict an outcome of a particular cross or breeding experiment is called punnet square.
Mendel figured this out by following two characteristics at the same time. (dihyrid).As opposed to the law of segregation where he only followed one. (monohybrid).He crossed two true breeding varieties that differed in two characters.The F1 generation of these were both heterozygous displaying the dominant phenotype.By breeding these together there could have been two outcomes:1: the predicted offspring of the F2 generation would have a phenotypic ratio of 3:1, like the monohybrids, (meaning the inheritance of the two characters were dependent upon each other); or2: the predicted offspring of the F2 generation would have a phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1. Meaning the two characteristics were inherited independently.As it turned out the second was true for all his experiments. The numbers didn't lie.Consider the two traits in the following (Trait One: "Oo" and Trait Two "Tt"):P Generation:OOTT bred with oottGametes would be:OT and ot.F1 Generation:Both OoTtF2 Generation showing independent assortment:OOTT OOTt OoTT OoTtOOTt OOtt OoTt OottOoTT OoTt ooTT ooTtOoTt Ottt ooTt oottNote the phenotypic ratio: 9:3:3:1.This outcome would have not been displayed if the traits weren't assorted independently.
