Recessive Epistasis Complete dominance at both loci, but homozygous recessive condition at one of the two loci is epistatic to the other.

Enzyme 1 (w) is epistatic to Enzyme 2 (m) Duplicate Dominant Epistasis Example: Seed capsule shape in Shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris) Plant 1 has a heart–shaped seed capsule and Plant 2 has a narrow capsule Crossing the two produces an F1 with a heart-shaped capsule x Single Dominant Gene? Selfing the F1 produces the following F2 ratio: 15 heart to 1 narrow fruit Duplicate Dominant Epistasis Example: Seed capsule shape in Shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris) AABB Heart Shape aabb Narrow Shape AaBb Heart Shape F1 F2 x AB Ab aB ab AB AABB AABb AaBB AaBb Ab AABb AAbb AaBb Aabb aB AaBB AaBb aaBB aaBb ab AaBb Aabb aaBb aabb A Dominant allele at either of the two loci produces a heart-shaped fruit A is epistatic to B or b and B is epistatic to A or a to give a 15:1 ratio Dominant Suppression Epistasis Example: Malvidin production in Primula (anthocyanin giving blue flower) Plants 1 and 2 lack blue pigment in their flowers. When crossed together, the F1 also lacks pigment Selfing the F1 produces blue flowered segregants Phenotypic ratio: 13:3; Not 3:1 Dominant Suppression Epistasis Example: Malvidin production in Primula (anthocyanin giving blue flower) KKDD Non blue kkdd Non blue KkDd Non Blue F1 F2 x KD Kd kD kd KD KKDD KKDd KkDD KkDd Kd KKDd KKdd KkDd Kkdd kD KkDD KkDd kkDD kkDd kd KkDd Kkdd kkDd kkdd Malvidin production controlled by dominant allele at K locus but the pathway is blocked by a dominant allele at the suppressor locus D Produces a 13 : 3 ration, like feather colour in chickens Bell Pepper Colour Genetics prepared by Dr. Paul Kusolwa Two genes without Epistasis - Additive Example: Fruit colour in Bell Pepper CCrr Yellow ccRR Brown CcRr Red F1 F2 x CR Cr cR cr CR CCRR CCRr CcRR CcRr Cr CCRr CCrr CcRr Ccrr cR CcRR CcRr ccRR ccRr cr CcRr Ccrr ccRr ccrr A Dominant allele at either of the two loci produces red fruit Dominant alleles at the C locus and no dominant alleles at R give yellow fruit Dominant alleles at the R locus and no dominant alleles at C give brown fruit Double recessive gives green fruit 9:3:3:1 Fruit shapes in squash Di locus Dominant to spherical or pyriform Duplicate genes with cumulative effects When Di is present together with Spherical S locus Di is dominant = Disc fruits 9 Discs Di_S_ When Di present with recessive s = spherical fruits When didi/ss = long or pyriform fruits Modified Ratio = 9: 6: 1 6 Spherical = Di/s & di/S_ 1 Pyriform di/s Duplicate Recessive - Squash Pathway involving two genes Wt = warty fruits Dominant to non warty wt Hr = hard rind hr = intermediate texture 9:7 B_ Hr_ Wt_ Y_ More Epistasis in Squash Bicolor fruits = locus B pleiotropic for fruits and leaves For yellow and green color patches BB or Bb Extent of yellow or green: Model with 2 incompletely dominant additive loci, Ep1 and Ep 2, proposed for enlarging the yellow patches Genotypes Bb with a dosage of 0 to 1 Ep alleles = bicolor green and yellow fruits Dosage of 2-4 dominant Ep alleles extends the yellow coloration Genotypes 9 B_Ep_ Extended yellow 3 B_epep Yellow narrow 3 bbEp_ Green extended 1bbepep green Tri-Genic Interactions….
