In tomatoes, the red color of the fruit dominates over the yellow. What will the offspring from crossing heterozygous red-fruited plants

Let’s designate the gene that causes the red color of tomato fruits as P, then the gene that causes the yellow color of the fruits of this plant will be designated as p.

Heterozygous tomatoes will produce red fruits. According to the conventions, we will write them as Rp. These plants are capable of producing two types of germ cells – p and P.

When crossing heterozygous tomatoes with a red fruit, we get offspring represented by the following theoretically possible options:

homozygous tomatoes with yellow fruits (pp) – 25%;

heterozygous tomatoes with red fruit (Pp) – 50%;

homozygous tomatoes with red fruit (RR) – 25%.
