Gene Interactions for NEET

Cis interactions occur between genes located on the same chromosome, while trans interactions occur between genes located on different chromosomes.

Epistasis can mask the effect of a gene, resulting in the suppression of its expression.

Complementary genes interact with each other to produce a normal phenotype, as the effect of one gene is masked by the presence of the other gene.
