What are the pros and cons of using a punnett square to predict the genetic outcomes of a genetic cross involving multiple genes?
Using a punnett square to predict the genetic outcomes of a genetic cross involving multiple genes have pros and cons. A punnett square is used to find out the percentage of the traits that can be developed from an offspring. A pro is that the punnett square can be used to find the traits probability very neatly to the eyes. A con is that there is more than one trait that is being tested which will have multiple alleles involved. Creating a multiple punnett square isn't very tricky, you have to match up the genes correctly and if you know how to do it it's really easy.
