In the Andalusian fowl, a single pair of alleles for one genecontrols the color of the feathers. Three colors are observed: blue, black, and splashedwhite. Crosses among these three types yield the following results:

Parents                              Progeny
Black ×blue                Blue and black (1:1)
Black × splashed white              Blue
Blue × splashedwhite               Blue and splashed white (1:1)
Black × black          Black
Splashed white×                           Splashed white
