Question
Chapter 21.4, Problem 1BTS
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The potential consequence of an error in one of the genes inmultiple gene interactions.
Introduction:
Multiple gene interaction or polygeneis the group of genes that interact additively to give rise to a particularphenotype. The interacting allelic pairs may be present on differentchromosomes. This results in variation in the

Gene duplication commonly arises from errors in replication.
