1 In pea plants yellow seeds Y are dominant and green seeds y are recessive A pea plant with yellow seeds is crossed with a pea plant with green seeds The resulting offspring have about equal numbers of yellow and green seeded plants What are the genotypes of the parents 1 In another cross a yellow seeded plant was crossed with another yellow seeded plant and it produced offspring of which about 25 were green seeded plants What are the genotypes of both parents
