Solution

The offspring with recombinant gene types for YyRr and yyrr parents would be yyRr and Yyrr.

Here's the step by step explanation:

  1. The parents' genotypes are YyRr and yyrr.

  2. The possible gametes for the first parent (YyRr) are YR, Yr, yR, yr. The possible gametes for the second parent (yyrr) are yr.

  3. When these gametes combine during fertilization, they can produce the following genotypes in the offspring: YYRR, YYRr, YyRR, YyRr, yyRR, yyRr, Yyrr, yyrr.

  4. Recombinant types are those that are not the same as either parent. In this case, the parents are YyRr and yyrr. So, the recombinant types are those that are not YyRr or yyrr.

  5. Therefore, the recombinant types are yyRr and Yyrr.
