Gene with multiple effects is
Gene with multiple effects is
The correct option is A Pleiotropic
A.Codominant
– appearance of genotypes of both parents in the progeny is called codominance.
B.Pleiotropic
- The ability of a gene to have a multiple phenotypic effects is known as
pleiotrophy and the gene is called Pleiotropic gene.
C.Epistatic
- 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.
D.Supplementary
- genes which include two pairs of non-allelic genes. Both of them
are involved in affecting the same character. Out of the non-allelic genes,
one gene is dominant and can express by itself. Second gene is
also dominant but expresses only when it is supported by the presence of the
first gene.
So,
the correct option is ‘Pleiotropic’.
