The dihybrid ratio 9 : 3 : 4 indicates which gene interaction

A. Complementary gene action

B. Inhibitory genes

C. Supplementary genes

D. Additive gene action

Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The dihybrid ratio 9 : 3 : 4 indicates Supplementary gene interaction.
Supplementary genes are genes that both contribute to a single characteristic, where one gene can mask the effect of the other.
Two independent dominant genes interact to produce a phenotypic expression different from that produced by either gene alone.
