| epistasis |
a form of gene interaction whereby one gene interferes with the phenotypic expression of another nonallelic gene or genes. Gene A is said to be epistatic to gene B if an allele of gene A masks the encoded effects of gene B.

| epistasis |
An interlocus interaction in which the expression of combinations of specific genes or genotypes from different loci is not accurately predicted by a simple linear combination of their average effects.

| epistasis |
An interaction among genes at different loci such that the expression of genes at one locus depends on the alleles present at one or more other loci.
