Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following ratio shows complementary gene interaction ____
A
9:7
B
15:1
C
1:2:1
D
9:3:3:1
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The complementary gene is a interaction of two dominant non inter-allelic gene in which each gene have its own effect but when come together to interact a new trait is developed and the Mendelian ratio 9:3:3:1 is changed to 9:7 due to complementation of both genes.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct option is ‘Flower colour in Sweat Pea’.

Detailed explanation-3: -In a complementary gene interaction ratio is 9:7 and flower colour in sweat pea shows this type of gene interaction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Recessive epistasis The four phenotypic classes correspond to the genotypes: A B, A bb, aaB, and aabb. If either of the singly homozygous recessive genotypes (i.e. A bb or aaB ) has the same phenotype as the double homozygous recessive (aabb), then a 9:3:4 phenotypic ratio will be obtained.
