In sweet pea gene C or P alone produces white flower, where as both C and P are needed to produce purple coloured flower. In a particular cross between two white flowered plants the offsprings were one half purple and one-half white. The possible genotypes of the parents is Correct Answer ccPp × CCpp

In the sweet peas gene, C or P alone produces a white flower, whereas both C and P are needed to produce a purple-colored flower. In a particular cross between two white-flowered plants, the offspring were one-half purple and one-half white. The possible genotypes of the parents are ccPp × CCpp.
As offspring are both purple and white therefore both the genes C and P must be in the heterozygous condition in parents either dominant or recessive form.

If a cross between true-breeding red-flowered and true-breeding white-flowered plants give rise to pink-flowered progeny, what is the mode of inheritance?
In a genetic cross between the genotypes WWXX and wwxx, the following phenotypic distributions were observed among the F2 progeny: WX, 562; wx, 158; Wx, 38; and wX, 42. Likewise, a cross between XXYY and xxyy yielded the following results: XY, 675; xy, 175; Xy, 72; and xY, 78. Similarly, a cross between WWYY and wwyy yielded: WY, 292; wy, 88; Wy, 12; and wY, 8. In all the genotypes, capital letters denote the dominant allele. Assume that the F1 progeny were self-fertilized in all three crosses. Also, double cross-over does not occur in this species. Which of the following is correct?

In tomato plant, red (R) is dominant over yellow (r) for fruit color and purple (P) is dominant over green (p) for stem color. Fruit color and stem color assort independently. The number of progeny plants of different fruit/stem colors obtained from a mating are as follows:
Red fruit, purple stem - 145
Red fruit, green stem - 184
Yellow fruit, purple stem - 66
Yellow fruit, green stem - 47
