Definition
A genetic interaction where one gene suppresses or masks the effect of another gene, making the second gene appear to have no impact on the organism's traits.
Etymology
From Greek 'epi' (upon) + 'stasis' (standing, stopping), coined in early 20th-century genetics to describe how genes can block each other's expression.
Kelly Says
Epistasy was named to suggest one gene literally 'stands upon' another, preventing it from being seen—it's like having two light switches where one can turn off the other completely, making the second switch invisible in its effects.
