In a cross, 45 tall and 14 dwarf plants were obtained, the genotype of parents was ________.

ATT X TT
BTT X Tt
CTt X Tt
Correct Answer
DTT X tt

Solution

In the given question, the ratio of tall (45) to dwarf plants (14) reduces to 3: 1. This proportion of tall to dwarf plant can be obtained only when two tall heterozygotes are crossed. This can be shown as under:
P generation: Tt X Tt
F$$_1$$ generation: TT Tt Tt tt
(tall) (tall) (tall) (dwarf)
Tall : Dwarf = 3:1
