A certain plant homozygous for yellow seeds and red flowers was crossed with a plant homozygous for green seeds and white flowers. The F1 plants had yellow seeds and pink flowers. The F1 plants were selfed to get F2 progeny. Assuming independent assortment of the two characters, how many phenotypic categories are expected for these characters in the F2 generation ?
