The genes for tall vine D and yellow seed G, are dominant over their respective alleles for dwarf d and green g. What phenotypes are expected from each of the following crosses? Include phenotypic and genotypic ratio. Use Punnet square to show the ff. Crosses.
a. Heterozygous tall, homozygous yellow X Homozygous Tall, heterozygous yellow.

Two pure-breeding lines of petunia plants are crossed. Line 1 plants grow to a height of 54
cm, and Line 2 plants grow to a height of 18 cm. Petunia plant height is controlled by three
genes, A, B and C. Line 1 has the genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁, and line 2 has the genotype
A2A2B₂B₂C₂C₂. Assume that genotype alone determines plant height under ideal growth
conditions and that the alleles of the three genes are additive.
If the F1 plants are self crossed, what is the expected proportion of F2 plants with the
genotype A₁A₁B₁B₁C₁C₁
