How are lacerate leaves determined in the opium poppy? two genes, with a dominant allele at either or both loci two genes, where one allele at a single locus is recessive lethal one gene, with codominant alleles at a single locus two genes, with a dominant allele at both loci Incorrect Give genotypes for all the plants in the , and generations.
