Question

The F 2 dihybrid ratio 12: 3: 1 is explained on the basis of (A) epistatic interaction (B) complementary gene action (C) interaction between two allele (D) both (a) and (b).

When two different genes which are not alleles, effect the same trait of the organism, the expression of one covers up the expression of the other. A gene that masks or prevents the expression of another is called epistatic to it and the gene that is hidden is known as hypostatic. Such interactions give modified F 2 ratio as 12: 3: 1.
