A Punnett square showing a typical test cross. (green pod color is dominant over yellow for pea pods [1] in contrast to pea seeds, where yellow cotyledon color is dominant over green [2]). Punnett squares for each combination of parents' colour vision status giving probabilities of their offsprings' status, each cell having 25% probability in ...
Termed a dihybrid cross or “two-gene test cross”, this experiment was grounded in the principle of segregation. When conducting a dihybrid test cross, two dominant phenotypic characteristics are selected and crossed with parents displaying double recessive traits. The phenotypic characteristics of the F1 generation are then analyzed.
Mink=c s and c b are codominant, with c b /c s cats having an intermediate phenotype termed mink, [29] in which the pigment distribution is between sepia and point, and the eye color is blue-green . Albinism=c and c2 are two synonymous alleles recessive to all other alleles at the locus that cause albinism. [30] [31]
More melanin means darker eyes, hair or skin. The color of the melanin in the eyes is determined by three other genes, EYCL1, 2 and 3. Together, they account for brown, green and blue, but not ...
In humans, eye color is a highly sexually dimorphic trait. [18] Several studies have shown that men are more likely to have blue eyes than women, while women are more likely to have darker eye colors (green and brown eyes) than men. [18] [19] Sex is therefore a major factor in the expression of eye color genotypes. [18]
The phenotypic ratio of a cross between two heterozygotes is 9:3:3:1, where 9/16 of the individuals possess the dominant phenotype for both traits, 3/16 of the individuals possess the dominant phenotype for one trait, 3/16 of the individuals possess the dominant phenotype for the other trait, and 1/16 are recessive for both traits.

A monohybrid cross is a cross between two organisms with different variations at one genetic locus of interest. [1] [2] The character(s) being studied in a monohybrid cross are governed by two or multiple variations for a single location of a gene.
