Vedclass · Answer

(A) $Mirabilis 	ext{ jalapa}$ (Four o'clock plant) exhibits incomplete dominance for flower color. When a homozygous red-flowered plant $(RR)$ is crossed with a homozygous white-flowered plant $(rr)$, the $F_1$ generation produces pink-flowered plants $(Rr)$. When these $F_1$ pink-flowered plants are self-pollinated $(Rr 	imes Rr)$, the resulting $F_2$ generation shows a phenotypic ratio of $1$ Red $(RR)$ : $2$ Pink $(Rr)$ : $1$ White $(rr)$. Thus, the phenotypic ratio is $1 : 2 : 1$.

In $Mirabilis \text{ jalapa}$, the phenotypic ratio of red : pink : white flowers in the $F_2$ generation is ....
