Expert Answer:
Plant with round yellow seeds (RRYY) was crossed with the plant bearing wrinkled green seeds (rryy).
Phenotypic Ratio: 9:3:3:1
F1 Generation: All plants obtained were heterozygous tall. Plants from F1 generation were self-pollinated to obtain F2 generation.
F2 Generation: One homozygous tall plant, two heterozygous tall plants and one homozygous dwarf plant were obtained.
The ratio obtained by breeding two pairs of contrasting characters is called dihybrid ratio.
