If one of the traits Mendel studied was encoded by a single gene with three alleles that produced different phenotypes, what would he have observed if he crossed all possible pairs of the three true-breeding lines in the F₁ and F₂ generations? A)In each of the crosses, he would have observed two phenotypes in the F₁ generation. B)Only a single phenotype would have been observed in the F₁ generation because only one allele can be dominant. C)No evidence would exist for the law of segregation. D)No true-breeding plants would have been produced in the F₂. E)None of the answer options is correct.
