Genetics F2 Generation The parental generation - original two individuals that are crossed during a breeding experiment. A family history that shows how a trait is inherited over several generations A trait that is not expressed when the dominant trait is present. A trait that is determined by a gene found on one of the sex chromosomes, such as the X chromosome. An individual whose phenotype is dominant, but whose genotype is not known, is crossed with a homozygous recessive individual. Heterozygous Alleles Two alleles for a character segregate when gametes are formed.
