Flower color in lilies is controlled by an incomplete dominance pattern. Suppose you have two lily plants, both with orange flowers. You cross the two plants and are surprised to find that, half the offspring are orange, but ~25% are red and ~25% are yellow. You decide that you like the red flowers and would like to make more. a) What cross would you perform to produce the most red flowered plants? b) Your mother decides she would like some of the orange flowered lilies. Which cross would give you the most orange flowered plants?

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
