Use the following information to answer the question.
A plantlike species on the hypothetical planet Pandora has three genetic traits: leaf color, controlled by gene L; a stem texture, controlled by gene S; and root length controlled by gene R. Each of the three genes has two alleles. The three genes are linked and recombine.
A geneticist performed a testcross with an organism of that species that is heterozygous for the three traits. She recorded progeny with the following phenotypic distribution:
Assuming that genetic inheritance for this hypothetical plant functions the same as on Earth, the parents in this cross most likely have the same phenotypes as which of the following progeny?
A) 2 and 5
B) 1 and 6
C) 4 and 8
D) 3 and 7
