Within a few years the forest was dying because there is no nutrient is present in the soil which can trigger the growth and development of the sol. The fallen parts of trees such as branches, tree and leaves etc are decomposed by decomposers such as bacteria and fungi which turn the fallen materials into nitrogenous materials which can be used by the plant for its growth and development.
There would still be a 50% chance for the offspring to be Heterozygous (Hybrid), but then there would be another 50% chance for the offspring to be Homozygous recessive (True-breeding short plants)
