Heterozygous Red- Rr
Homozygous Red-- RR
Homozygous white-- rr
Monohybrid cross- Rr
Recessive allele- homozygous white i.e rr
Explanation:
Heterozygous have 2 different alleles of a gene as both Red and white alleles are present in the example Rr.
Homozygous: If the 2 alleles at a locus is same then they are homozygous, it can be dominant as RR or recessive as rr.
Recessive gene are the ones that can be masked by the dominant genes as red is dominant on white.
Monohybrid cross is the result of cross between the individual having either homologous dominant or recessive genes or genotype. The result is generally masking the recessive allele resulting in dominant phenotypic trait but the genotype changes.
From the example given in question:
A cross between dominant red as RR
and a cross between recessive white as rr
The punnet square shows:
r r
R Rr Rr
R Rr Rr
it can be seen that all progeny are red but genotype changed to heterozygous red as Rr
it is two forces are unequal or unbalance
Feral rock pigeons were screened for neutralizing antibodies to West Nile virus during late winter/spring and summer of 2002 and 2003. Additionally, virus isolation from serum was attempted from 269 birds collected during peak transmission
