In radishes, two incompletely dominant genes control color and shape. Red and white radishes are

homozygous, whereas the hybrid is purple. Long and round are homozygous and, if crossed, will
produce an oval hybrid. Give the F2 genotypic and phenotypic ratio produced by crossing pure-breed
red long radishes with white round varieties. What will be an ideal response?


1 LL RR long red, 2 LL Rr long purple, 2 Ll RR oval red, 4 Ll RR oval purple, 1 ll RR round red, 1 ll Rr
round oval, 1 Ll rr long white, 2 Ll rr oval white, 1 ll rr round white
