What is a parental genotype

2 Answers

A dominant allele is denoted by a capital letter ( A versus a). Since each parent provides one allele, the possible combinations are: AA,Aa and aa. Offspring whose genotype is either AA or Aa will have the dominant trait expressed phenotypically, while aa individuals express the recessive trait.

I hope this helps
