If a scientist wanted to follow Mendel’s experiment with a different kind of plant, which type of plant would she examine?

Mendel studied traits that had two alternative forms, corresponding to two alleles, and he used plants that could self-pollinate. So a suitable different plant would have only two alleles for a trait. A plant that cannot self-pollinate would make it harder to control breeding, and having only recessive alleles would not provide contrasting forms to study.
