Question
in a group of ornamental gourd plants, some individuals have yellow fruit and others have green fruit. in this group, the gene for the fruit color trait has two alleles. the allele for yellow fruit (f) is dominant over the allele for green fruit (f).
a certain ornamental gourd plant from this group has the homozygous genotype ff for the fruit color gene.
based on this information, what is this plants phenotype for the fruit color trait?
yellow fruit
green fruit
The allele for yellow fruit (F) is dominant, meaning any genotype containing at least one F will express the yellow fruit phenotype. The plant has a homozygous FF genotype, so the dominant trait is expressed.
