The best example of pleiotropy is:
1. | Skin color | 2. | Phenylketonuria |
3. | Colour Blindness | 4. | ABO Blood group |
In antirrhinum, two plants with pink flowers were hybridized. The F1 plants produced red, pink, and white flowers in the proportion of 1 red, 2 pink and 1 white. What could be the genotype of the two plants used for hybridization? Red flower colour is determined by RR, and White by rr genes.
1. | RR | 2. | Rr |
3. | rr | 4. | rrrr |
