Q. Starch synthesis gene in pea plant is the example of
A) Single gene produce more than one effects
B) Multiple genes produce more than one effects
C) Two genes produce more than one effects
D) Multiple genes produce less than one effects
Explanation
Occasionally a single gene product may produce more than one effect. For example starch synthesis in pea seeds is controlled by one gene. It has two allele (B and b). Starch is synthesized effectively by BB and have bigger grains. In contrast bb homozygous have lesser efficiency in starch synthesis and produce smaller grains
