A cross was made between a plant that has blue flowers and purchased seeds to a plant with white flowers and green seeds. The following data were obtained:
F1 generation: All offspring have blue flowers with purple seeds
F2 generation: 103 blue flowers, purple seeds
49 blue flowers, green seeds
44 white flowers, purple seeds
104 white flowers, green seeds
Total: 300
Start with the hypothesis that blue flowers and purple seeds are dominant traits and that the two genes assort independently. Calculate a chi square value. What does this value mean with regard to your hypothesis? If you decide to reject your hypothesis, which aspect of the hypothesis do you think is incorrect (i.e., the idea that blue flowers and purple seeds are dominant traits, or the idiot that the two genes assort independently)?
