In peas, the tallness is dominant over dwarf-ness and the violet colour of flowers is dominant over the white colour. When a tall plant bearing violet flowers was pollinated with a dwarf plant bearing white flowers, different phenotypic groups were obtained in the progeny in numbers mentioned against them:
Tall, Violet = 138
Tall, White = 132
Dwarf, Violet = 136
Dwarf, White = 128
Mention the genotypes of the two parents and of the four offspring types.
