Vedclass · Answer

(D) This phenomenon is known as incomplete dominance,where neither allele is completely dominant over the other.In $Mirabilis$ $jalapa$ (Four $O$'clock plant),the red flower gene $(R)$ and white flower gene $(r)$ show incomplete dominance.Parental generation $(P)$: Red $(RR)$ $	imes$ White $(rr)$$F_1$ generation: All offspring are Pink $(Rr)$.Selfing $F_1$ $(Rr 	imes Rr)$:$F_2$ generation genotypes: $1 RR$ (Red) : $2 Rr$ (Pink) : $1 rr$ (White).Thus,the phenotypic ratio is $1:2:1$.

In $Mirabilis$ $jalapa$,when a homozygous red-flowered plant is crossed with a white-flowered plant,all $F_1$ plants produce pink flowers. When $F_1$ plants are self-pollinated,the resulting $F_2$ generation produces red,pink,and white flowers in the ratio of:
