Abstract: A new method, the observation method of dominant traits, which can be used for determining the proportion of characters from F2 under the Mendelian Inheritance, was discovered. The principle of this method is that people can conclude a general formula:3n1 (n1: the number of dominant characters types in F2) based on the proportion of characters from F2 under the Mendelian Inheritance. This method is more convenient and time-saving than common tests in teaching and practice of classic genetics.
