The correct option is D Duplicate genes
A.Supplementary
genes – Two indepednet pairs of genes, which interact to produce a new trait
together, but each dominant gene alone produces its own trait, are called
Supplementary genes. eg: comb types in
chickens
B.Complementary
genes – Two independent pairs of genes, which interact to produce a trait
together, but each dominant gene alone does not show its effect, are called
complementary genes. eg: flower colour in Lathyrus
C.Duplicate
genes – If the dominant alleles of two genes loci produce the same phenotype. eg:capsule
of Sheperd’s purse.
D.Polymeric
genes - Two independent dominant genes, whether present in homozygous or
heterozygous condition, have similar phenotypic effect when present
individually but produce a cumulative or double effect when found together. Eg:flower
colour of Lathyrus
So,
the correct option is ‘Duplicate genes’.
