Solution

The correct option is C Incomplete dominance

A.Codominance - Expression of phenotypes of both parents in the progeny in heterozygous condition is called Codominance.

B.Pseudodominance - the situation in which the inheritance of a recessive trait mimics a dominant pattern.

C.Incomplete dominance - Expression of phenotypes of neither of the parents in the progeny, in heterozygous condition is called Incomplete dominance

D.Epistasis - A gene which masks the action of another gene is termed as epistasis. The gene is called epistatic gene and the gene whose effect is masked is termed as hypostatic gene.

A cross between black flowered plant(BB) and white flowered plant(bb) yielded grey flowered plants(Bb). It is called Incomplete dominance, because, in the progeny the phenotypes of neither of parents is expressed.

So, the correc option is ‘Incomplete dominance’.
