Vedclass · Answer

(B) The color of fruit in certain plants (like summer squash) is a classic example of $Dominant 	ext{ } epistasis$. In this interaction, a dominant allele at one locus masks the expression of alleles at another locus. For example, in summer squash, the $W$ gene (white fruit) is dominant and masks the expression of the $Y$ gene (yellow fruit), resulting in white fruit regardless of the $Y$ genotype. Thus, the correct answer is $Dominant 	ext{ } epistasis$.
