Solution

The correct option is B
RR and Rr

With the Parental genotype as RR and Rr, following cross will take place.

R R X R r
$\begin{matrix} R & R R & R R & R R H o m o z y g o u s & H o m o z y g o u s r & R r & R r H e t e r o z y g o u s & H e t e r o z y g o u s \end{matrix}$
Thus 50% of the offsprings will be homozygous round seeded whereas 50% will be heterozygous round seeded plants.
