9: 3: 3: 1 ratio is modified to 9 : 7 ratio due to

  • complementary gene

  • epistatic gene

  • hypostatic gene

  • supplementary gene


A.

complementary gene

Complementary genes are the genes which are present on different genetic loci but interact with each other to express a single character in combination. That is they both together produce a particular phenotypic trait in an individual. Supplementary genes are the genes which include two pairs of non-allelic genes.
