. In common wheat, Triticum aestivum, kernel color is determined by multiply duplicated genes, each with an Rand an r allele. Any number of R alleles will give red, anda complete lack of R alleles will give the white phenotype.In one cross between a red pure line and a white pureline, the F2 was 6463 red and 641 white.a. How many R genes are segregating in this system?b. Show the genotypes of the parents, the F1, and the F2.c. Different F2 plants are backcrossed with the whiteparent.
