The presence of alleles A,B represent dominant genes for color and mask recessive traits. According to the Punnet Square, which color genotype and phenotype.would be represented in the last squareEpistasis occurs when the presence of one gene's allele masks the expression of another allele.

Answer 1

In your scenario, the dominant alleles A and B represent color traits, while the recessive alleles (a and b) will mask the expression of color traits when present together in aabb genotype.

Given that aabb is a recessive genotype, and typically recessive traits may correspond to a specific color (in this case, white is a common representation of a recessive trait for dogs), the response that would be correct according to typical Mendelian genetics would be:

aabb, White
