Question

When two or more than two genes affect the expression of each other it is known as ______­­­___.

  1. Crossing over

  2. Gene interaction

  3. Linkage

  4. Pairing

hintHint:

This will determine the phenotype of an organism.

The correct answer is:

Gene interaction


    • When genes influence the expression of the other genes, it is called as gene interaction.
    • Gene interaction can be classified into:
    1. Interaction between dominant genes.
    2. Interaction between complementary factors.
    3. Interaction between supplementary factors.
    • Epistasis is the alteration in the expression of a gene by the influence of the other genes.
