Detailed Solution
Law of segregation is universal. There is no exception to this law.As the dominant colour is not expressed in F1 generation we can say that the principle of dominance is not followed.An intermediate phenotype is expressed in F1 generation which is because of incomplete dominance.When we do selfing of F1 generation the genotypic ratio of F2 generation is 1 /4 RR, 2/4 Rr, 1 /4 rr.
