As an example, we will consider a mating between two individuals simultaneously heterozygous for genes determining the ability to utilize the sugar, galactose, and determining eye color. These individuals have the genotype, Ala B/b. The four kinds of meiotic products would have the genetic compositions AB, Ah, aB, and ab. The possible results

As an example, we will consider a mating between two individuals simultaneously heterozygous for genes determining the ability to utilize the sugar, galactose, and determining eye color. These individuals have the genotype, Ala B/b. The four kinds of meiotic products would have the genetic compositions AB, Ah, aB, and ab. The possible results of fertilizing eggs of these sorts at random with sperm of the same genotypes are shown in Figure It will be seen that a ratio of 9:3:3:1 is expected for the phenotypes brown-eyed, galactose utilizers; brown-eyed, galactose nonutilizers; blue-eyed, galac- tose utilizers; blue-eyed, galactose nonutilizers. The same result will be obtained by writing out the multiplica- tions implicit in the expression [{A-\-a) (B-\-b}]'^. For example, iA-ira){B + b} = AB + Ab + aB+ab; multiplying the latter term by itself gives the genotypes in the table. This method is convenient when.
