Does it matter what order you put the alleles in? Like Bb and bB?

While it doesn't really matter, the standard way of writing them is with the dominant/capital alleles first, so it would be Bb

• It is important. If we write 'bB' , it would be wrong.

◘ First, the dominant genes are written (like B) . This is a must. This is a rule.

◘Recessive genes (like b) are always written after from the dominant gene.


=> Namely, 'Bb' should be.


This is the right shape :)
