Epistasis
Dominant Epistasis
 Presence of a dominant epistatic gene prevents the expression of a hypostatic gene,
regardless of its dominance
 Dominant epistatic gene in Labradors means that black pigment is produced which
overrides the pigment produced by the hypostatic gene, leading to black fur
 12:3:1 Example:
o A is a dominant epistatic gene coding for no pigment
o B is a hypostatic gene coding for yellow pigment
o b is a hypostatic gene coding for green pigment
Parent Phenotype Double Heterozygous x Double Heterozygous
Parent Genotype AaBb x AaBb
Parent Gametes AB Ab aB ab AB Ab aB ab
Dihybrid Cross AB Ab aB ab

AABB AaBb

AABb AaBb Aabb

 13:3 Example:
o A is a dominant recessive gene coding for no pigment
o B is a hypostatic gene coding for brown pigment
