Solution

The correct option is D 1/16
The probability of homozygous plants for both dominant characters in F $_{2}$ generation of a dihybrid cross is 1/16.
For example: as seen from the figure, the probability of homozygous plants for both dominant characters in F $_{2}$ generation (RRYY) is 1/16.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
