Vedclass · Answer

(D) In Snapdragon ($Antirrhinum$ $sp.$),the inheritance of flower colour exhibits incomplete dominance. When a homozygous red-flowered plant $(RR)$ is crossed with a homozygous white-flowered plant $(rr)$,the $F_1$ progeny $(Rr)$ does not show the dominant trait (red) but instead exhibits an intermediate phenotype,which is pink. This occurs because the dominant allele is not completely dominant over the recessive allele,resulting in a blending effect in the heterozygote.

What would be the colour of flowers in $F_1$ progeny as a result of a cross between homozygous red and homozygous white-flowered Snapdragon?
