When red and white flowered Mirabilis plants are crossed?

Correct option (c) 1:2:1 and 1:2:1

Show

Explanation:

Son.retimes two genes of the allelomorphic pair do not show a dominant-recessive relationship, but when presents together, they show intermediate trait or incomplete dominance. Incomplete dominance is not blending inheritance because parental characters reappear in F2 generation. ln Mirabilis jalapa, there are two types of pure breeding plants, red flowered and white flowered. On crossing them the F1 plants or hybrids possess pink flowers. On selfing them, F2 generation has plants in the ratio of 1 red: 2 pinks: 1 white-flowered plants with the phenotypic ratio being the same as a genotypic ratio.

Genotypic ratio= 1RR: 2Rr: 1rr

Phenotypic ratio: 1 Red : 2 Pink : 1 White

Both genotypic ratio and phenotypic ratio are same,

i.e., 1 :2 :1.

1:1 and 1:1:1

Solution:

Sometimes two genes of allelomorphic pair do not show dominant-recessive relationship, but when present together, they show intermediate trait or incomplete dominance. Incomplete dominance is not blending inheritance because parental characters reappear in F2 generation. In Mirabilis jalapa, there are two types of pure breeding plants, red flowered and white flowered. On crossing them the F1 plants or hybrids possess pink flowers. On selfing them, F2 generation has plants in the ratio of 1 red : 2 pink : 1 white flowered plants with phenotypic ratio being same as genotypic ratio. Genotypic ratio = 1RR : 2Rr : 1rr Phenotypic ratio = 1 Red : 2 Pink : 1 White Both genotypic ratio and phenotypic ratio are same, i.e., 1 : 2 : 1.

Solution

The correct option is B 30 red and 60 pink and 30 whiteThe phenotypic and genotypic ratio of F2 generation is (1RR: 2Rr: 1rr) Total 120 plants are produced in F2. So, out of 120 plants, 2 parts are pink, 1 part is red, and the remaining 1 part is white i.e., 60 plants are pink, 30 are red and 30 are white.

When red and white flowered Mirabilis plants are crossed all pink flowers?

ln Mirabilis jalapa there are two types of pure breeding plants red flowered and white flowered. On crossing them the F1 plants or hybrids possess pink flowers. On selfing them F2 generation has plants in the ratio of 1 red: 2 pinks: 1 white-flowered plants with the phenotypic ratio being the same as a genotypic ratio.
