    i am confused with ques 7…. for testing the genotype of an unknown plant, we generally cross with female parent… k/a test cross. crossing with male gives out cross.. which i think is not liable… am i right????

      yes it’s quite write as a test cross is a cross between F1 hybrid with recessive parent (female parent)
