When Mendel bred green pea plants with yellow pea plants and all the offspring were yellow, it indicated that the yellow trait is dominant over the green trait. This means that the yellow allele masks the expression of the green allele in the offspring. As a result, even though the green allele is present, it does not manifest in the phenotype of the plants. This observation was crucial in understanding the basic principles of inheritance.
When Mendel crossed true-breeding pea plants with round yellow seeds (dominant traits) and those with wrinkled green seeds (recessive traits), the offspring displayed round yellow seeds because the alleles for round shape and yellow color are dominant over the alleles for wrinkled shape and green color. This resulted in a phenotype where the dominant traits mask the effects of the recessive ones in the F1 generation. Thus, all the hybrid offspring exhibited the dominant traits of round yellow seeds.
I think that you will have yellow becaues green color could make yellow.
The possible phenotypes of the offspring from a cross between yellow and red parental plants depend on the inheritance pattern of the traits. If yellow is dominant over red, the offspring could display either yellow or red phenotypes, with yellow being more prevalent. If the traits follow incomplete dominance, the offspring might show a blend of the two colors, resulting in orange. The exact phenotypic ratios would also depend on whether the parental plants are homozygous or heterozygous for their respective colors.
Since smooth yellow peas are dominant traits (represented by genotypes RRYY or RRYy), all offspring from a cross between two plants with smooth yellow peas will also have smooth yellow peas. Therefore, 100% of the offspring will have this phenotype.
This is one of the classic experiments carried out by Gregor Mendel. If you cross pure-breeding green pod plants with pure-breeding yellow pod plants the offspring (F1 generation) will all have green pods. This means that green pod is dominant and yellow pod is recessive. To explain the results, pure-breeding green pod plants must have the genotype GG (homozygous dominant) and yellow pod plants must be gg (homozygous recessive). When they are crossed the F1 offspring will receive a G allele from the green parent and a g allele from the yellow parent, so they will all have the genotype Gg ie they will be heterozygous.
When Mendel crossed pea plants with green pods with those with yellow pods, the offspring all had green pods if the green pod parent was homozygous. If the green pod parent was heterozygous, then half the offspring had green pods and half had yellow pods.

Smooth yellow pea plants and wrinkly green peas.

Mendel's experiments involved cross-breeding pea plants with specific traits, such as tall and short height, smooth and wrinkled seeds, and yellow and green peas. He would carefully control the pollination process by manually transferring pollen from one plant to another to create offspring with predictable traits. Mendel would then observe and record the traits of the resulting offspring over multiple generations to determine patterns of inheritance.
Lots and lots. Primary yellow, canary yellow, custard yellow, yellow-green, all sorts.

This is a basic Mendel cross where the master himself found out that yellow was the dominant color to green. Many years later we found out that there is another gene involved and that the colors have to do with chlorophyll - not just color. If a pure green is crossed to a purebred yellow, then all the offspring will be yellow. However they do carry the green gene since if these yellow offspring are self-fertilized, they will produce the standard 3/4 yellow and 1/4 green phenotypes.
Mendel crossbred -tall & dwarf pea plants, -green & yellow peas, -purple & white flowers, -wrinkled & smooth peas. And a few other traits.
Green is the dominant trait in this cross. Mendel's results demonstrate that when a dominant allele (for green pods) is present, it masks the effect of the recessive allele (for yellow pods), resulting in all offspring exhibiting the dominant phenotype. Thus, the true yellow podded plant contributes a recessive allele that does not express in the presence of the dominant green allele.
