Through his breeding experiments with pea plants, Mendel established three ... the potential combinations of parental alleles in the offspring is to align the alleles in a grid called a Punnett ...

Only one parent is needed in asexual reproduction and the offspring are exact copies. Not all plants produce flowers. These are called non-flowering plants. Ferns and mosses are examples of plants ...

When Mendel bred a tall plant to a short one, all of the offspring were always tall, never blending to medium size. When he then bred those offspring together, three out of four of their offspring ...

When plants self-fertilised, these characteristics remained consistent in the offspring. At the time, it was widely believed that heredity worked by blending the characteristics of parents ...

Plant biotechnologies play an important role in mutation breeding. Plant tissue culture techniques are powerful tools in shortening the time needed to generate breeding mutant lines (those that always ...
