F1 x F1 RxR
First cross:
Having two of
the same allele: homozygous e.g. SS, ss
Having two of
different alleles: heterozygous e.g. Ss
Inbreeding makes
Let: S = Round allele (dominant) parents homozygous
which results in true-
s = wrinkled allele (recessive) breeding
First cross:
253
Coin #1 = ½ or 50:50
Coin #2 = ½ or 50:50
½x½=¼
Second rule of probability:
• The probabilities of mutually exclusive
events sum.
– probability homozygous round: ¼
– probability heterozygous round: ½
– probability homozygous wrinkled: ¼
– probability round: ¼ + ½ = 3/4
