How were the observations of F2 progeny of dihybrid crosses in Drosophila by Morgan different from that of Mendel carried out in pea plants ? Explain giving reasons.
Morgan observed the result of linkage of genes on a chromosome, but Mendel did not observe phenomenon of linkage in pea plants // F2 ratio of Morgan deviated significantly from 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 ratio (Mendelian ratio).
