The f1 generation may have genes for short plants just that the genes for long plants are dominant over the genes for short plants(recessive) so when cross pollination happen and that two f1 long plants which are homozygous cross pollinate, the recessive genes have a chance of being paired up in new offspring(F2 offspring) thus the possiblity of short plants in f2 generation

For example, the cross between two pure plants (homozygous), being a dominant characteristic over another, in case high on short.

High = AA
Short = aa

F1 = AA x aa = 100% Aa = high = heterozygous

F2 = Aa x Aa
 
      A    a
A  AA  Aa
a  Aa  aa

Therefore, of this crossing, we have
75% High plants (AA e Aa)
25% short plants (aa)

This is possible because the heterozygote plant had the short plant allele.

What are the parent genotypes
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

A dominant allele is denoted by a capital letter (A versus a).Since each parent provides one allele, the possible combinations are: AA, Aa, and aa. Offspring whose genotype is either AA or Aa will have the dominant trait expressed phenotypically, while aa individuals express the recessive trait.
