Question
In a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous pea plants (RrYy × RrYy), where R (round seed) is dominant over r (wrinkled) and Y (yellow) is dominant over y (green), what phenotypic ratio is expected among the offspring, and how many of the 16 possible gametic combinations would show the round-seed, green-colour phenotype?
