Probability of genotype

Probability of genotype

What is the probability that cross between genotype AaBbCcDd and AaBbCcDd will produce AaBbCcDd?

For these type of questions, remember one thing that the probability of a heterozygote (Aa) is 2/4 or 1/2 and probability of a homozygote AA or aa is 1/4

Calculations to find probability of genotype

Now, start calculations…

aabbccdd = 1/4 * 1/4* 1/4* 1/4 = 1/256

AaBbCcDd = 1/2* 1/2* 1/2* 1/2 = 1/16

AABBCCDD = 1/4 * 1/4* 1/4* 1/4 = 1/256

AaBBccDd = 1/2* 1/4* 1/4* 1/2 = 1/64

AaBBCCdd = 1/2* 1/4* 1/4* 1/4 = 1/128
