If a pea plant has a recessive allele for green peas it will produce
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Green peas if it does not have a dominant allele for yellow peas.

Explanation:

In pea plants, yellow is the dominant allele color of peas and green is the recessive allele color of the pea. So the genotype that makes yellow color pea is YY or Yy and the genotype that is responsible for producing green color pea is only YY.

This shows that homozygous dominant or heterozygous dominant condition gives rise to yellow color pea and only homozygous recessive condition would give rise to green color pea plants.

Therefore if a pea plant has the recessive allele for green peas it will produce green peas if it does not have a dominant allele for yellow peas.

In order to carry out the testcross, you should cross your original pea plant with another pea plant whose phenotype is ________
Makovka662 [10]
<span>My pea plant has an unknown genotype for flowers, whether it has two dominant traits for white flowers (WW) or one dominant and one recessive (Ww) leading to white flowers; therefore I am doing a testcross in order to determine the genotype of my pea plant. The best plant to do this with is one that has a phenotype of purple flowers (ww) - that is, it is homozygous for the recessive trait. If I use a homozygous recessive plant, I know exactly what its genotype is. I don't have to worry about whether it's got one or two dominant alleles; I know that at least half of my alleles are going to be the recessive w. This makes identifying the offspring's genotype very simple. If I find that the offspring have at least some purple flowers among them, I know that my original plant had to be Ww; that is it had to have one dominant and one recessive allele for the flower color gene. If, however, all of the offspring are white flowers, I know that my original pea plant had both dominant alleles (WW).</span>
