Law of Independent Assortment : It states that when two pairs of contrasting traits are combined in a hybrid, segregation of contrasted one pair of character is independent of the other pair of characters.
Detailed answer:
Law of Independent Assortment : It states that when two individuals differing in two pairs of contrasting characters are crossed the segregation of one pair of character into 3 : 1 ratio is independent of the segregation of another pair of contrasting characters into 3 : 1 ratio and also some non parental new recombination of character also appear in the ratio of 9 : 3: 3 : 1 in F2 generation as shown in the above cross. This is because the alleles of different characters are located on different pairs of homologous chromosomes and that they are independent from one another in their segregation during gamete formation.
