Question:

A common test to find the genotype of a hybrid is

  • crossing of one $ {{F}_{2}} $ progeny with male parent
  • crossing of one $ {{F}_{2}} $ progeny with female parent
  • studying the sexual behaviour of $ {{F}_{1}} $ progenies
  • crossing of one $ {{F}_{1}} $ progeny with recessive parent

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Test cross, i.e., crossing of \({{F}_{1}}\) progeny to the recessive parent is used to find genotype of the progeny.

so, the correct option is (D): crossing of one F1 progeny with recessive parent

Dihybrid Cross

A genetic cross between two individuals who have homozygous or heterozygous genotypes for two features or traits is called a dihybrid cross. The traits of these individuals are mainly identified by genes. The parents in a dihybrid cross experiment carry different alleles for each trait where one would be a homozygous dominant allele and the other would be a homozygous recessive allele.

For example,

A classic example of a dihybrid cross is Mendel’s experiment with peas. The experiment was done to highlight whether there is any relationship in existence between various pairs of alleles.
