उत्तर

In the classic Nilsson-Ehle wheat kernel colour experiment with three gene pairs, the F₂ ratio is 63 Red (in various shades) : 1 White. This occurs because only the triple recessive genotype (aabbcc) produces white kernels, while all other combinations produce shades of red, demonstrating the continuous variation characteristic of polygenic inheritance.
