Q17. In a dog breed, a gene B coding for fur color has a dominant allele B for black fur. Gene B has a recessive allele b that produces brown fur. A second gene I, has a dominant allele I that is epistatic to the color locus and can inhibit pigment formation. Gene I has a recessive allele, i, on that permits pigment deposition in the fur. Note: the inhibition of pigment formation by the epistatic allele I causes the fur to be white. A) What is the phenotype of the individuals with the below genotypes? bbii Bbli Bbii bbli BBIi B) What are the phenotypes and genotypes of the offspring of each of these dog crosses? a. bbii x Bbli b. bbii x Bbii c. bbli x BBli C) What type of epistasis is described in this problem?
