A cross was performed between two parent plants of unknown genotypes. The offspring were segregated based on two flower characteristics i.e. flower colour [magenta (M) or white] and flower position [axillary (A) or terminal] and counted. The two genes responsible for these characters are not linked and segregate independently. Based on the information given in the table, predict the genotypes of the parents.

Options

  1. AM M a a X m m A A
  2. BM m A a X m m A a
  3. CM m A a M m A a
  4. Dm m A a M M a a
