What is the phenotypic ratio of bravetimid offspring from a


InUrsa gummi, the famed Gummy Bear soldiers, a quality that is sought is bravery (dominant phenotype). The recessive phenotype is timidity or conformity. The alleles and genotypes corresponding to these phenotypes at two loci are presented below.

A_       codes for brave;

aa         codes for timid/conforming;

B_       codes for brave;

bb        codes for timid/conforming.

What is the phenotypic ratio of brave:timid offspring from a cross betweentwo doubly heterozygousUrsa gummi, if the mode of inheritance is duplicate recessive epistasis?

  • A  15:1.
  • B  12:3:1.
  • C  1:15.
  • D  9:7.
  • E  4:12.
