11. Now lets look at the possible genotypes and the phenotypes that will be expressed Z Z z z z z z Z Z Z z Z There is a single possibility of inheriting a homozygous (pure) dominant genotype which will produce a phenotype with grey feathers There are two possibilities of inheriting heterozygous (hybrid) genotypes which will produce a phenotype with grey feathers
12. Now lets look at the possible genotypes and the phenotypes that will be expressed Z Z z z z z z Z Z Z z Z There is a single possibility of inheriting a homozygous (pure) recessive genotype which will produce a phenotype with white feathers So two grey birds can produce a pigeon with white feathers!
