Tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. The frequency of dwarf plants in F2 will be 0%.
- A true breeding pea plant is one that, after self-fertilization, only bears offspring with the same traits.
- True breeding organisms are those that share the same genes for the desired traits and are genetically comparable.
- These animals possess homozygous alleles. If the alleles are distinct, only one of the gene's alleles—referred to as the dominant gene—will be expressed.
- The other allele, referred to as the recessive one, has no effect.
According to the given cross:
TT X tt (parents)
Tt Tt Tt Tt (offspring) all tall
Hence the percentage of dwarf individuals is 0.

In the mid-1800s, an Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel Opens in modal popup window began his own experiments with plants. Unlike his predecessors, he used rigorous scientific methods in his experiments.
Mendel conducted his experiments with pea plants, which he grew in the garden of his monastery. The plants are easy to grow, reproduce quickly, and have several distinct characteristics Opens in modal popup window , or features, that are easy to observe. Characteristics of pea plants include flower color, seed color, and pea pod shape.
<span>Moreover, Mendel knew that each characteristic exists as one of two traits Opens in modal popup window , or forms of the character. For example, the seed color characteristic exists as one of two traits: green or yellow.</span>
