A garden pea plant produced axial white flowers. Another of the same species produced terminal violet flowers. Identify the dominant traits.

To find the dominant trait among two contrasting traits like white or purple color, one must carry out the cross between the parents exhibiting the contrasting traits. The traits which are expressed in progeny i.e., in F1generation are dominant.In this case,Parents: AAww (Axial white) x aaWW (Terminal violet)F1Generation: AaWw x AaWw (Axial violet) ——— SelfingNow, selfing of F1generation will give:9 axial violet : 3 axial white: 3 terminal violet : 1 terminal white.So, axial violet is dominant.
