The first step in constructing a monohybrid cross involves identifying the parental genotypes. E.g. Two true-breeding pea plants have yellow or green peas. The dominant seed colour is yellow so the parental genotype is YY for yellow pea plants and yy for green pea plants.
One of Mendel's observations was that the inheritance of each characteristic is determined by 'units' that are passed on to descendants unchanged. The genetic diagram shows all of the possible...
