Summary Introduction

To determine:

The predicted genotype frequencies among the offspring of an $AABB\times aaBB$ mating.

Introduction:

Individuals in the population carry a specific set of alleles, known as genotype. The examples of genotype are homozygous and heterozygous. The phenotype of a plant depends on its genotype and it is the trait of the individual that can be observed. An allele is said to be “dominant” when its effect masks the effect of the recessive allele.
