Fork-line Method A method that uses genotypic ratios to predict the outcomes of genetic crosses. Based on the idea that, in a dihybrid, the two traits sort independently of one another * What happens with one trait is completely unrelated to what happens with the other trait.

Dihybrid Example 4 In rabbits, black fur (B) is dominant to white fur (b) and long hair (L) dominates short hair (l). What is the chance of getting a black, short-haired rabbit from a cross between a rabbit that is heterozygous for both traits and a rabbit that is white and heterozygous for long hair? B b, L l x b b, L l (first do your punnet squares) B b L l b b L l
