In Dahlia variabilis, the yellow color of the flower is inherited as a tetrasomic ( autotetraploid ) trait. One dominant gene is sufficient to produce flavones, the yellow pigment. If in a natural population of D. variabilis,a cross- pollinated crop, 64% of the plants have yellow flowers and 36% have white flowers, what is the expected proportion of plants true breeding for yellow flowers? Assume maximum frequency of double reduction at the locus.
