What is Dihybrid Cross
A dihybrid cross is a genetic cross that involves two pairs of contrasting characteristics. It helps geneticists and researchers understand how different traits are inherited together and calculate the probability of specific trait combinations appearing in offspring. The process follows Mendel’s laws of inheritance and uses a 4×4 Punnett square to visualize all possible genetic combinations.
How to Use Dihybrid Cross Punnett Square Generator
Step 1
Enter the first parent’s genotype for both genes. Use capital letters for dominant alleles and lowercase for recessive alleles (e.g., ‘Aa’ for the first gene and ‘Bb’ for the second gene).
Step 2
Input the second parent’s genotype following the same format (e.g., ‘AA’ for the first gene and ‘bb’ for the second gene).
Step 3
Click the calculate button to generate the Punnett square and see the results.
Step 4
Review the generated Punnett square showing all possible offspring genotypes.
Step 5
Examine the calculated genotype ratios and percentages below the Punnett square to understand the probability of each possible offspring combination.
