     The international   rice research institute in the phillipines develops new lines of rice combine   high yields with resistance to disease and insects. the technique involves   crossing different line to get a new line which has the most advantageous   combination of genes. detailed genetic modeling is required. one project   involved breeding new lines to resist the brown plant hopper:374 lines were   raised with the results shown below. all plants resistant:97 mixed some   plants resistant, some susceptible:184 all plants susceptible:93 According to   the IRRI model the lines are independent:each line has a 25% chance to be   resistant, a 50% chance to be mixed, and a 25% chance to be susceptible. Are   the facts consistent with the model?
