In peanut, a plant may be of the forms "bush" or runner". 2 different strains of peanut, V4 and G2, in which the "bush" phenotype occurred, were crossed with the following results: V4 bush x V4 bush = all bush  G2 bush x G2 bush = all bush   The 2 breeding strains of peanut bush were crossed in the following way: V4 bush x G2 bush = F1 runner F1 x F1 = 9 runner: 7 bush   What are the genotypes of the parent and offspring? what is the genetic basis of the inheritance pattern of runner and bush in the F2 peanut?

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.
