In corn, a certain gene cause the kernels to turn red when exposed to sunlight. The trait is known as sun-red (c+). An allele of this gene has been found that causes a very pale red trait
called dilute sun-red (cd). Still a 3rd allele causes a less intense red to develop- the trait is known as weak sun-red (c) The following results were obtained from these crosses:
sun-red x dilute
sun-red x weak
weak x dilute
Cross
Show the dominance relationships among these alleles.
all sun-red
all sun-red
all weak

984 sun-red: 314 dilute
