New cards

Dihybrid Crosses

Breeding experiments between organisms that vary by two traits (e.g., seed shape and colour)

New cards

Dihybrids

Heterozygous for two traits - display the dominant phenotype.

New cards

Independent Assortment in Dihybrid Crosses

Traits separate independently results in a 9:3:3:1 ratio in F2 generation.

4
New cards

Law of Independent Assortment

The alleles for different genes are segregated into gametes independently of one another.
