First, I cross-hybradized the first and fifth parents, 2nd and 3rd, 2nd and 4th, 3rd and 4th, and the 1st and 3rd. In a lot of these experiments, the traits that made that plant stand out did not pass on completely. Obviously, their must have been an influence from the recessive traits in that plant.
Althoguh, some of the plants must have not been cross-hybridized before because they produced the same trait as their other plant.
As I look at pedigrees, I realize the dominancy of certain traits, but also the weaker, but still dominant, traits. For example, the pea shape of round was dominant at a ratio of 3:2, while purple to white, purple was dominant 10:0.
