FIG. 54. Trihybrid Diagram showing results of crossing 

 peas having round-yellow seeds and tall stem (RYT) with 

 peas having wrinkled-green seeds and dwarf stem (WGD). 

 Eight types of germ cells result from such a hybrid, as shown 

 in the <$ gametes above the square and the $ ones to the 

 left of it, and the possible combinations (genotypes) of 

 these and $ gametes are shown in the 64 small squares of 

 which only 1 is pure dominant (upper left corner), 1 pure 

 recessive (lower right corner) and 8 homozygotes (in di- 

 agonal line between these corners). The relative numbers 

 of the different phenotypes are 27RYT: 9RYD: 9RGT: 9 WYT:
