Allele for normal pollen is "sp+"

and "sp+" is dominant over "sp"

Allele for zebra necrotic tissue is "zn"

sp+ zn+ sp+zn spzn+ spzn

sp+ zn+ sp+ sp+ zn+ zn+sp+ sp+ zn+ znsp+ sp zn+ zn+ sp+ spzn+ zn

sp+zn sp+ sp+ zn+ znsp+ sp+ zn znsp+ sp zn+ zn sp+ sp zn zn

spzn+ sp+ sp zn+ zn+sp+ sp zn+ znsp sp zn+ zn+ sp sp zn+ zn
