Look at the F2 phenotypic ratios!! • If one gene is involved in the trait, then the monohybrid phenotypic ratio is: 3:1 or 1:2:1 or 2:1 • If two genes are involved in the trait, then the dihybrid phenotypic ratio is: 9:3:3:1 or some permutation (9:4:3 or 9:7 or 12:3:1) "The 1/16 class is always the ...
